Yes, that was part of their complaint I think.

Chris,
We are on 7.6.04 without patch 1. Forgot if you were on p1 or not but here’s 
another issue we faced. Within the Notes of entering Work Info entries, if the 
user types a line and hits enter, they can of course keep typing but when they 
save the record, everything after the 1st line break disappears. Score!

Okay, thanks – I see that I can take it to 7999 without CLOBbering it, but 1500 
is more reasonable.  We’ll discuss it here first.

Hi

Yep we found the same thing and were forced to increase its size. To prevent 
users from adding data that should be an attachment we restricted the size to 
1500, big enough for almost all text needed to be explained in the WL but 
forces long email trails to an attachment.

We also check all the other apps to see if they had the same issue and adjusted 
accordingly

Another interesting complaint today.  Apparently the WorkLog Notes field 
(Notes: 304247080 z1D_Note) is resisting editing and limiting entry on the 
Incident form, where it is limited to 255 characters.  The underlying field on 
HPD:WorkLog is 0 length (Notes 1000000151 Detailed Description), and the 
equivalent field on HPD:Help Desk Dialogs is also 0 length (Notes 301398800 
z1D_Details).  One of the problems is that the HPD:WorkLog form contains many 
records where this field is already populated well beyond 255 characters – 
throwing an error when you view and try to edit one of them through the 
Incident form.

The disconnect between HPD:Help Desk and HPD:Help Desk Dialogs is even more 
puzzling, although the latter is Display Only and stores no data so 0 length 
comes cheap.  I’ll be forced to consider lengthening it on the Incident form 
overlay, and if it gets big enough to require a BLOB then I might as well go 
for unlimited.   The helpdesk also complained that it would not accept carriage 
returns when typing inside the text box; I’m not sure what that’s all about, or 
how to correct it. Of course this did not show up in testing since no one 
bothered entering anything lengthy in a test ticket.

Any comments from anyone who has already gone down this road?
