            Bug ID: 154805
           Summary: TABLEIMPORT: Warning doesn't show enough information
                    to find reason for error
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.5.2.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium

Screenshot with waringing in HSQLDB and Firebird

Have a look at the attached screenshot.
I have tried to import a Calc-table into HSQLDB and Firebird.
One field in Calc table contains too much characters for importing into the
database.
Error in HSQLDB only says: "Value too long"
Error in Firebird says: "Field could only save 20 characters, you try to import
27 characters."

No Problem in a table like attached in second attachment. There are only 2
fields. But had a table with more than 80 fields…

It would be better to inform also about the field name, which will throw this
error. For normal users this warning is filled with too much informations
he/she doesn't know anything about.
Have a look at this thread:
https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/problems-after-appending-data-into-tables/90225

Better: Add a button "Details", as it is added also in other places of the
database, to see this detailed information. Give a clear information about the
field, which is too long, and how long this field has to be for save the data.
