There is something else happening, then. There would be no restriction for
the number of times you could use such things. If it will help you, though,
assign that value to a variable, and then use the variable in your
Response.Write(), or echo(); commands.

Did you try assigning it to a variable and then printing the variable to the
page?

There is no such restriction on "memo" data.

That's what your usage of it does. There is nothing about this kind of
thing that could possibly prevent data fetched from the database from being
displayed multiple times. But we have no idea HOW you have implemented
that - no doubt there is a logic flaw in there somewhere.
