paste problem for varchar(8000)

i’m having a weird problem regarding pasting into a field defined as varchar(8000) i simply copied a chunk of text (abt say 2-3000 chars) and tried pasting into the field for server mgr, BUT the whole chunk just won’t go in, the text keeps getting truncated after abt 1000+ chars and i am not even able to type any extra into the field. [?][?][?] anyone of you encountered this problem? how do i rectify this problem?
I believe you’re trying this from Enterprise Manager and I suggest not to do so, if you want to transfer the data between the fields better use TSQL using QA its faster and reliable. Satya SKJ
