Hi Sharad,

the value 132 for the Text element is hardcoded in MSTEXI00 ( RS38M-IMAXLEN = 132 ).. I don't think you will be able to change it without an access key..

Hi

this is from f1 on dlength field:

Defined length of a text symbol, indicated by characters other than space in the text string.

This length is only given for information and is not saved in the text pool.
