I am having problems getting a TDBEdit field to recognise a new table column length.
I have an application I have been asked to make modifications to. It has a TDBEdit component on the form. It has a data source set and happily reads and writes back to an Interbase table. The table column is a varchar(25). The modification required is to allow text of up to 50 characters be entered into the table. I have altered the table column to varchar(50) I have confirmed that 50 characters can be entered into the column. What do I now have to do to make the TDBEdit component now recognise this column as a varchar(50). I set the MaxLength to 50. It allows the entry of 50 characters but then immediately truncates the entered text to 25 characters as soon as the TDBEdit component loses focus on the form. On saving the data it posts 25 characters to the table. It would seem that I have missed a very simple setting on the component. Can anyone assist.
