Tom,

I moved to separate NOTE tables. If I remember correctly, NOTE can be 4096. 
However it is limited by the other fields in the row.
Just a thought.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Odd Report Action


I have a large, complicated report with has 20 sections based on 12 view 
based subreports. It has run correctly for several years. I can repeatedly 
run this report for any number of people and create a complete 20 section 
report. Recently I had one person where this report built  everything except 
sections XI/XII. After many attempts, I tracked down the field in a record 
that was causing the problem for that one person. The field was a NOTE that 
had about 100 characters. It is the only NOTE in this table. There were no 
strange characters that I could see. Simply rewriting the NOTE ended the 
problem. This same field in other rows often had over 1400 characters so 
NOTE works. Using RBXE latest updates. So I have two questions:

1.Is there some way to identify when non-text items are  in a field?
2.I used to have many NOTEs in tables. Most of those got changed to TEXT 
based how much users actually wrote over time. Numerous RBase examples have 
Notes in the associated Tables. Is this print problem an indication that I 
need to completely move to separate NOTE tables?
