Howdy,

I have some code that fires an error that I've not seen before. And,
when I google it, I get only ONE hit (Where's my prize...?)

In any case the error is "Data is too long for field" and I am
baffled.

I've marked the line that fires the error with "/\/\/\/\/\/\/\" below,
and would appreciate any help you might provide.

Many thanks,

A.C.
