LCHR fields in SmartForms

Hi,

I'm trying to pass data from self-defined table which has a field type of LCHR and its length is more than 255 characters.

Which type of element should I use on Smartforms side to get all data to the smartform? Now it shows only ~255 characters but I am sending more data to smartform.

Hi,

if it is more than 255 chars then obviously you have to go for LCHR or some other type. but what is that with more than 255 chars. if it is some text then why can't you create the standard text and simply iclude it .

We have own table where I am going to store instructions which can be up to 1000 characters long.

So I thought that the best way to get data to smartform is just pass it to smartform trough interface, but the smartform doesn't seem to support so long texts.

If I use include text they seem to be static? I can't put variable in smartform include text (text name/object/id) which tells what long text I want to get to the form?

In my case the long text that I want to get to smartform depend on the data that I pass to smartform.

My mistake, it is possible to set parameter in smartforms which tells what longtext should be included.
