Re: Limit characters in Comment
Could be. On postgres, the datavalue table (at least on my system) looks
like this
CREATE TABLE datavalue
(
dataelementid integer NOT NULL,
periodid integer NOT NULL,
sourceid integer NOT NULL,
categoryoptioncomboid integer NOT NULL,
value character varying(255),
storedby character varying(100),
lastupdated timestamp without time zone,
comment character varying(360),
followup boolean,
....
In that case, not sure then. :-/
Regards,
Jason
