Input field (Char) on Table Maintenance

Former Member

Hi All,

I have created a table maintenance over a view, one of the fields is a char field (text132) but the screen maintenance only allows me to type 40 chars - how can I extend from 40 so that I can input the full 132 chars ?

Best

Regards

Hi ,

I think the visisble length is fixed to 40 but the field will still be able to take 132 characters.

Try to type in and see if the text gets scrolled to wards the ledt side as you type in more than 40 characters.

Ravi

Hi Neill,

1. Ideally it should not happen.

2. Did u change the table field length from 40 to 132

and did not RE-GENERATE the maintencne?

3. If yes, then re-generate and it will become ok.

hi Connor,

WELCOME TO SDN

Change the table field length from 40 to 132 and then GENERATE the view again.
