  I use sun mysql native connetcor to connect my openoffice.org base to mysql 
server.
  When I use forms to enter or view data, textboxes without text length limit 
(means value set to 0), text in forms is limited so some characters, in 
different fields the limit is different, but it's not the field limit set in 
mysql database.
  
  Temporary solution: set textbox length in form manually.
  
  This problem does not appear, when openoffice.org connects with database
  through odbc.

- I use sun mysql native connetcor to connect my openoffice.org base to mysql 
server.
- When I use forms to enter or view data, textboxes without text length limit 
(means value set to 0), text in forms is limited so some characters, in 
different fields the limit is different, but it's not the field limit set in 
mysql database.
+ - Let's say I have a table `Users` in mysql database. I have two columns, 
`Id` which is Int type and `Username` which is VARCHAR(255). 
+ - I have OpenOffice that uses Sun Mysql Native Connector.
+ - I create new form with wizard, open it to enter data and in textbox showing 
`Username` column I can enter only 7 letters.
+ - In editing mode I see the length of textbox is set to 0.
+ - I manually define the length to 255 in editing mode of form, now I can 
enter 255 letters in this textbox in form.
+ - I open this table in OpenOffice Base, I can enter in `Username` column 255 
letters, here everything is ok.
  
- Temporary solution: set textbox length in form manually.
+ So, probably Openoffice (or rather the native mysql connector)
+ improperly reads the defined column length from the database, only in
+ forms.
  
- This problem does not appear, when openoffice.org connects with database
- through odbc.
+ Please note this value is read properly, when I use ODBC driver.
