How can I retrieve more than 256 characters from a longtext field?

Question

I have a longtext field in an ACCESS database. I have setup a datasource for the DB and access it with the JDBC:ODBC driver. When I used the simple resultset.getString, it only gave me the first 256 characters of the contents of the field. So, I looked at the other methods and found that resultset.getAsciiStream was the way to go for longtext fields. So I changed the resultset.getString line to the following code:
InputStream msgIn = rs.getAsciiStream("RAW_MESSAGE");
StringBuffer stringbuffer = new StringBuffer();;
int inbyte = 1;
try {
while (inbyte > 0) {
inbyte = msgIn.read();
stringbuffer.append((char)inbyte);
} catch (IOException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
String msg = stringbuffer.toString();
Unfortunately, after 256 characters I get a -1 returned. The field contains more like 1000 characters. I would appreciate any advice.
Thanks

Found the "Search Entire Library" option - click on the small (VERY small for my eyesight) down arrow next to the magnifying glass. Also need to select "Filter by: Songs", and then the songs in the main window show the results.
I'm going to leave this up on the board because 1) in case someone else has this question, and 2) I don't know how to delete it anyway.
