I went to add a drawing to attach to an item in manufacturing. I entered all the appropriate details, with a drawing group set up. When I went to add the Storage Location file path, it saved the file path (char(255)) to a field in the DW010013 table called STATUSLINE_I (char(81)). So anytime I call up the drawing, it's looking at the first 81 characters of the file path, rather than the full 255. So when I try to view this drawing, attached to an item let's call ABC1234, the drawing can't open because the path I set is greater than 81 characters in length. What should I do in this case? And why is the STATUSLINE_I field not a DT of char(255)?
My initial thought was to change the table's field to Char(255), but I don't change table properties in GP as I'm not sure how it could affect any behind the scenes procedures.
Post Summary:
Drawing Form - Storage Location - Is a textbox with 255 character max.
GP stored procedure saves the Storage Location to a field with a max of 81 characters.
I need the ability to set a file path of up to 255 characters, not 81.
