Bigger free text inputs

 

Hi Knut,

What Albert is meaning is "Value Type" while creating data elements that
would accomodate more text or sentences. In Uganda some data elements
require entrants to enter a narrative which could be more than one or two
sentences. In some application the field type is reffered to as multi-line
entries others memo so thats what he is referring to.

An example would be like some tools which require entrants to enter the
comments from the facility about the report.

But since text entries were presenting errors on aggrpagates at different
levels, we had decided to do away with text fields.

thanks
