** We had the same issue. We are running AR 7.6.04. Here is what I did to fix 
the issue.

Change the field length of z1D_Note to 0 on HPD:HelPDesk form.
Modify the active link HPD:INC:EditWorkInfo and change the description to 
LEFT($z1D_Note$, 98)


Thanks,
Wirasat

**
Why in the world did BMC limit the Notes field in WorkInfo records to 255 
characters per record?  This is maddening for our IT users who didn't have this 
limitation in our 7.0x world.  The workaround is to email the INC or CRQ with 
the information record that exceeds 255 characters.  Does anyone else have the 
same problem and what did you do to resolve this poor design, please ?
