I noticed all my product descriptions were cutoff at 255 characters. I looked in the database, and product descriptions are actually contained in details, which was set to ntext. I changed the column called description to 1000 characters just in case.

I don't know if the import wizard is cutting them off or the query to display product text only calls for 255 or what, but it only displays 255 characters. Is there somewhere I can make a change in code or otherwise? Any help would be great. Thanks.
