When I have written querys, there was a problem for searching strings longer as 40 characters.
I think it was a problem of the 4D external mechanism. Some times I searched for streets wich existed, but I didnt find. My solution was to write a wrapper for the query command. queryLongNames(->[einheit];->[einheit]name;$strasse) // ---------------------------------------------------- // User name (OS): npfaff // Date and time: 28.12.10, 09:19:07 // ---------------------------------------------------- // Method: QueryLongNames // Description // Wrapper für Bug in External API (Suche nach Strings über 40 Zeichen funktionieren in Externals nicht) // // Parameters // ---------------------------------------------------- C_POINTER($1;$2) C_TEXT($3) QUERY($1->;$2->;=;$3) > Am 20.02.2018 um 22:20 schrieb Aparajita Fishman <aparaj...@aparajita.com>: > > Active4D itself has no limitation on field length.
