We experienced the same issue but we did not install patch 20 on our User tool. I confirmed that the issue does not occur on our production environment which is on patch 16 but it happens on our development environment which is on patch 20.
It seems this is not an issue with Patch 20 for the client but Patch 20 for AR Server. We are on Windows 2003 for our application servers.

I was just curious to know if anyone else has encountered this little peculiar aspect of AR System behavior. We upgraded to ARS 6.3 Patch 20 (running on a Solaris 8 server) and now, if you go to a Join form in the ARS User tool and try to search using the Query By Example method and placing a value in the 'Join Request ID' field, then you get the following error message when trying to initiate the search. ARERR [101] Entry ID parameter value is longer than the maximum allowed length However, if you go to the advanced search bar and issue the following query, the search executes. 'Join Request ID' = "NOM000000000037|NODE00000000001|000000000101931" This happens whether the user is running with the ARS 6.3 Patch 20 or 7.0.1 patch 1 User tools.
