MS Office Forum / General MS InfoPath Questions / May 2005Is there any way around infopaths dislike for long datatypes?
I need to store more than 255 characters from a textbox control into a datasource. However, InfoPath will not let me connect to a datasource with long datatypes. Is there a work around? Thanks >I need to store more than 255 characters from a textbox control into a >datasource. However, InfoPath will not let me connect to a datasource with >long datatypes. Is there a work around? What type of datasource is that? These are supported SQL Server string datatypes and all of them are greater than 255.... Character Strings char Fixed-length non-Unicode character data with a maximum length of 8,000 characters. varchar Variable-length non-Unicode data with a maximum of 8,000 characters. Unicode Character Strings nchar Fixed-length Unicode data with a maximum length of 4,000 characters. nvarchar Variable-length Unicode data with a maximum length of 4,000 characters. sysname is a system-supplied user-defined data type that is functionally equivalent to nvarchar(128) and is used to reference database object names.
