    I have a custom database field in a Lawson table that holds 256 chars.  I am trying to use an AGS call to save data to the database field from a text area.   The screen field defintion in the .scr TRANS section is 99 chars.
    I am trying to see if there is a way to save directly to the database field.
    I am trying to avoid a work around of having additional hidden screen fields that must be concatenated on the save and parsed on the inquiry.

      The only methods I'm aware of are 1) use multiple fields a string/unstring together when loading/saving, or 2) using comment attachments. The first method is much easier and can be done in the Design Studio events. =
      Thanks for using the LawsonGuru.com forums!
