Creating a table field of length > 255 characters

Former Member

Hi All,

I'm trying to create a custom defined table ('Z') with a field of length greater than 255 characters. I'm getting an error saying that the field is too long. Can anyone tell me a way around this issue? Basically I need to create a field significantly larger than 255 characters.

Thanks and hope to hear from you soon.

Regards,

Manu.
