Most of you know that you can change the field size of any value by going into the database configuration and changing the size to either are larger or smaller number. But in doing this, sometimes the field on the screen doesn’t change in width if your field size changes are very minimal. If you change a ALN field size from 5 to 30, then you may notice that the text box on the screen is longer. Well sometimes, you just want the text box field size to be longer without having to make the actual database field size larger. For example, the workorder description field is 100, but the text box field on the workorder module can maybe fit 40 characters. Now you don’t want to change the database field to 200 just so you can see more characters in the text box. Well, there is an easier way to expand the text box field to accommodate this.
