Default 255 char limit on TextBox

Hi,

I'm trying to add a series of long strings to a textbox in Excel 2003 using
C# automation like so, but I'm getting blank text boxes:

largeTxt.TextFrame.Characters(missing, missing).Text = ...

I know there's a 255 character limit on the text box, but is there any way
around this? I've tried using the Insert method, and setting explicit start
and length values, but nothing has worked.

Any suggestions? Thanks.
