I can't       imagine someone would limit a field to only alphas for essentially a "name       field". Digits should also of course be included, and so you'd expect other       chars, certainly if one consulted a list of echos on the backbone. A string is       a string is a string which is what I'd be looking at for a "name" field.              Now maybe WILDCAT!_SUPPORT is too long.. 16 chars... do you have anyway to       check to see what it's storing for the area names? Eight chars are classic,       but....              Do you have any other areas on your tablet that are that long?              Just thinking...              Take care,       Janis              --- BBBS/Li6 v4.10 Dada-1        * Origin: Prism bbs (1:261/38)    |
