Thanks Tom, but I can only show a maximum of 90 characters of data regardless
of how many characters are downloaded. Our customer then takes the file &
downloads the information into their system. An error message comes back if
their are more than 90 characters.

the first step would be

columns(6).ColumnWidth = 90

Then you would need something in each cell in the adjacent column on the
right.

How would I restrict a column to show only 90 characters; even though you
may
have 200 characters downloaded from another dbase?
