In this version check box text limited to 255 character. You have 2 option to fix that problem :</p> <p>1. Upgrade you machform to 2.x version<br /> 2. Change machform "ap_element_options" table data type.</p> <p>If you consider yo change table data type, you can try to following this steps :<br /> - go to MySQL administrator/control panel<br /> - run this query in there</p> <pre><code>alter table ap_element_options modify &lt;x&gt;option&lt;x&gt; text;</code></pre> <p>It will change data type to "text" and make sure you replace &lt;x&gt; tag to back ticks character </p> https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/system-fiels-sizes#post-4786 Wed, 25 Feb 2009 01:17:54 +0000 netwise 4786@https://www.machform.com/forums/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Machform Rocks!!</p> <p>I am using it for a customer to create online surveys.
