I have a problem when trying to limit the view of a field while I present
the user a table with the whole data of a set of records. Well , one of
those sets has a text string inside, generally long text strings. When user
requires to change data from the database, a table shows up with the
complete records for one item. When the user reach the field of text, he has
to read a very tall column of text data,instead of read a few lines of the
start of the text field. It makes the table very uncomfortable to read or
either use.
Please if some one knows how to solve this problem, please reply this
message, even if it means to cut and paste from december news, cause I can
only receive/read the last 300 news.
IMPORTANT: Database is MySQL, code obtained is PHP.

How about:
SELECT LEFT('foobarbar', 25) FROM TableOfFoobars

If you are using outlook express, click tools, options, read and uncheck the
"get 300 headers at a time".
