MS Office Forum / General MS InfoPath Questions / April 2006Truncating data
I have a situation where I need to truncate data received in Field B from Field A. Field A will allow up to 75 characters (via data validation) and it populates Field B which will only hold 53 characters. I do not understand why this has to work this way on this form, but must replicate it any way. Any thoughts.  SignatureThanks! -Steve M. Set a default value formula on Field B which is something like: substring(FieldA, 0, 53) SignatureGreg Collins [InfoPath MVP] Visit http://www.BrainTrove.com Visit http://www.InfoPathDev.com I have a situation where I need to truncate data received in Field B from Field A.
