Problem. Help! Field cannot be larger than 64K bytes

Why I get this error:Notes Error - Paragraph or field cannot be larger than 64K bytes in line 602.

In this line (602) I scripted that:


If info_about_changes <> “” Then

(601) newHistory$ = info_about_changes & Chr(10) &

                              Source.FieldGetText("History")

(602) Call Source.FieldClear(“History”) ???

       Call Source.FieldAppendText( "History",  newHistory$)

End If


Field “History” is a RichText. I know what cannot insert programmicaly in such fields larger than 64 KBytes. But in my case take place just clearing of field.

What is wrong in my script?

Not sure, but if you’re running into an error, maybe work around it by keeping the info_about_changes field where it is, then using the queryclose event to create a new RT Item of the info_about_changes item, append the RT contents of the History RT item to it, replace the History RT Item with that, delete the new RT item you created, then clear the info_about_changes field - or something like that
