Alright there,

Hope its ok to post this here, I'm sure you chaps will move it if not

Some of my members have started getting this error recently:

Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e57' The field is too small to accept the amount of data you attempted to add. Try inserting or pasting less data. /forum/privatesend_info.asp, line 274

Heres the offending line and the line up one and down one:
end if

my_Conn.Execute (strSql)

if strEmail = "1" then


The only change I can think of recently is the security updates, perhaps I've stuffed em up???

Thanks, Robin.

"The field is too small to accept the amount of data you attempted to add"

Looks to me like you need to open the database and allow more characters to the field you tried to add info to.
Seeing how I never used the PM MOD, I can't tell you which field it is though...

i guess this error will happen when your member try to input a too long PM Subject... the table field PM.M_SUBJECT is limited to 100 characters length.

and if u want to correct this, just as FrutZle's suggest, then change the field properties from 100 to 255.

Thanks people I'll try that!
Never happened before though and I've sent some very long pm's including today, it only happens on replying to a pm not when you post a new one........ no matter how long it is, strange ay!

Cheers, Robin.

on your version, do you get multiple RE: 's showing up in the subject line? If so, the last version I released fixed that problem.

Alright Richard,
I don't get the multiple RE's..... it really is a new problem which makes it a bit of a mystery.

I guess I'll end up upgrading anyway I like the way this forum works now but the mods and the way I've integrated the forum will make it hard work, perhaps I'll think about dropping some mods.

Thanks, Robin.
