Topic: Report wizard error - truncated field
Hi
I have a report in the wizard that fails for one subset of the database with an error that indicates that that data will be truncated. As far as I can tell thi happens when the FIELD_SIZE attribute in the REPORT_FIELD is shorter than the length of the data held elsewhere. A process of elimination points to the Consolidated Recorders field which has a length of 100 (compared to 8000 for Sample_Recorders). Does it sound like this is the problem and if so would it be safe to change the attribute value in management studio? If not, any suggestions?
Thanks
