If you create a SET FIELDS action in an Active Link on a form with a 0 byte (unlimited) field using the 6.3 version of the Admin tool (even if the server is 7.1), you can cut and paste or type several thousand characters (try about 4000). If you try to do the same thing in an Active Link, on the same form and field, with the 7.1 Admin Tool, it will not let you cut and paste and/or type more than about 1900 characters into the SET FIELDS action. Give it a shot. Truly fun.
The problem is worse than that....you can import such an Active Link onto a 7.1 server, no problem. You just can't modify the set fields itself. You can't run Remedy Developer Plus from the 7.1 Admin tool against it either. It will hang the minute it hits that active link. Fun times. You can imagine the run-around I got from BMC Support. I had to debug and solve this myself. Now...is this a bug in 7.1 or something BMC/Remedy "fixed" because it was "not working correctly" in 6.3? _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org Platinum Sponsor: www.rmsportal.com ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"
