This is a limitation of the Source Detail field size in Legacy. The field is defined to contain only a maximum of 255 characters. It was not designed to transcribe the contents, that is what the detail text field is for.
By the way, a feature in Legacy will work the same in both the deluxe and standard versions. I do not know of any area where we restrict the standard version to a lesser quantity than the same feature in Deluxe. The feature will work in both or only in deluxe.
