Re: Expand Box for character fields... bug maybe???
Hi Joe, No problem with the CC. Your environment is the same as mine except we use SQL rather than Oracle. And I still do most of my development in the Admin tool (works just as well in 7.5) rather than Dev Studio. Out of curiosity, is this happening on the web, client or both?

Hello Ricki, That's odd.. It doesn't work for me.. How different is your environment from mine?

Both clients.. I wonder what might change if I used the earlier admin tool and changed that.. I'll give that a shot and see what happens..

Re: Expand Box for character fields... bug maybe???
What version are you on again? I just tested it and when I set the field properties to hide the box it hides on both. I tested the multi-row character field with the Show as Text option both checked and unchecked. I am using ARS 7.1.0 patch 7 (all parts: Server, User Tool, and Mid-Tier) on Solaris w/Oracle.

Re: Expand Box for character fields... bug maybe???
Fredrick, I'm sorry I missed out on the environment.. 7.5 Patch 2 all the way from the ARS to thick client to the Mid-Tier.. ARS is on Windows 2003 server, and the client OS's can range anywhere between XP to Vista. Oracle 10 Release 2 is the underlying database and IIS 6 is my customers choice of a web server which uses Tomcat 5.5.25 as the jsp engine..
