Make the datatype for the field you are trying to show in Crystal Reports  a text datatype and not Char, ntext or varChar. Just "text"  -- This will allow the field to be recognized in CR as a memo field which will allow you get beyond the 254 string rule

In version 9 you do not have to worry about this problem.
That's it

Good luck  :)
