Greetings,

Here is my second problem for the day.

I have a table-based form. It displays most records OK but on some I get this error displayed:

ENG0703 FORMREAD Variable Exceeds maximum length

This error results for records that have lots (thousands) of values in one of the multi-value columns. In this case the record is the name of a city and the multi-value column has the keys of the company employees working in the city. The record was displayed fine in the old arev system it is taken from. Is there some tuning parameter that I must set to get this to work? Thanks again for the help,

Tara

Are you displaying the employees in an edit table? Are you adding the employee names to an array then sending the array to the edit table? I have noticed a slight problem with the edit tables. My edit tables seem to crash after about 6400 bytes of data or sometimes around I did some tests here with and edit table and found that it would not allow me to exceed 161 rows of data. (I'm still waiting for an answer from revelation on that one.) The other possibility is that the array variable (if you are filling an array first) may be exceeding 64k by the time you include the characters used up by the employee names. Good Luck

I have noticed a slight problem with the edit tables. My edit tables seem to crash after about 6400 bytes of data or sometimes around that.

I think that is my problem too. I'll let you know if I find out anything. Thanks for your response Brandon.

Simply set ROWS to -1 - then it uses VM and you can have as many rows as you want. Also set the data width of each column to a more sesnible value than 80.
