Hi,

I've got an odd result coming from a test drive DB I'm using OpenLibre to front 
end.

DB is MySQL 5.5 using current MySql native driver on Server 2003 with base 
being installed locally same machine.
Libre Base attaches to a small, simple table configured like the Libre canned 
"Employees" table.
It has a PK plus a fields of pchar, 50 characters wide, built in MySql using 
workbench initially.

I generated a duplicate query in base over top of the table.
Created a form over the query
Was pleased to see it operated as expected.

But then...

During edits of records within the form I discovered any prior entry which had 
X characters used in the form, would not permit other records to have any 
greater number of characters than the prior smallest used characters.  The 
problem appears only to happen in the form tool.  I can edit, add or delete in 
query or table with no problem.

If I edit the earliest smallest text entry in table view to hold 30 characters, 
the form cannot enter or edit any more than thirty characters on subsequent 
records.  If I again alter the earlier smallest field record to 5 characters, 
once again the form only permits 5 characters on subsequent records.

I've looked for a configuration issue that might affect it, but it puzzles me 
since table and query operations work fine, why the form would adopt such an 
odd behavior.

Anyone able to offer a suggestion what to look for to solve this.  My efforts 
to search for a solution have come up empty so far.

Thank you in advance,

Mike
