There is a workaround - select the Format "Tab-Delimited Values" when you export from Quickbase. Open a blank spreadsheet and format the column that will contain the long text as Text.Then open the file you exportedwith a plain text editor such as Notepad (recommend not using MS Word) and copy and paste the contents back into Excel. Thanks to Tim Phan of CH2M Hill for the workaround.Re: Export to excel truncates text to 255 characters - is this a feature or a bug - is there a workaround?Yes and it is truncated.Re: Export to excel truncates text to 255 characters - is this a feature or a bug - is there a workaround?It is a multiline text field with a limit of 0 (no limit) - but the point is that there are more than 255 characters in the field in Quickbase.It gets truncated after export by excel.See my response below.
