Harbour DBF to Excel Problem

I have a dbf created using HMG. In which I have a field of characters having width of 500. If I import this dbf into Excel/Openoffice it is broken. When I shrink into 200 characters, It is imported correctly.
Is there any limitation in this regard?

I'm not sure, may be a 255 bytes limit. Do you haven't try dividing C500 field to two adjacent fields in C250 ?
