Default Table Help

Hello Everyone,
I know I have seen this problem before and that I have corrected it
in
the past, but for some reason I can't figure it out this time or find
something similar online. The problem is simply, when I view a
certain
table one of its columns is completely filled in with "##########".
The data is still there because when I click on it the data appears,
and the data is visible in a justified form. It can't stay like this
but I can't figure how I did it in the first place or how to change
it
back. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You

Kory

Like Excel, if you data stored exceeds the width of the column it's
displayed in, you get "###..."

Make the column wider.

This is happening in Access? In Excel I would suggest you make the column
wider, but I have not seen this behavior that I can recall (in Access 2003,
anyhow).
