A string can be at most 65534 characters long error

The following formula is causing the error.  How can I fix this formula to correct the error?
whileprintingrecords;
stringvar f:= f + {HNO_NOTE_TEXT.NOTE_TEXT};

yes, you'd need to create a bunch of formulae to get around this...one main formula that creates a bunch of string running totals and then some display formulas. the display formulas would then be put into a Text Object.
the formula below uses a buffer (as mentioned below) of 500 characters...adjust this to the longest length of the note field...i.e. if the note field can be up to 2000 characters, then set b to 2000.
create a new formula like...
//@main formula
whileprintingrecords;
stringvar t:= {HNO_NOTE_TEXT.NOTE_TEXT};
numbervar b:= 500;
stringvar f1; stringvar f2; stringvar f3;
stringvar f4; stringvar f5; stringvar f6;
b:= 65534 - b;
if len(f1) <= b then f1:=f1+t
else
if len(f2) <= b then f2:=f2+t
else
if len(f3) <= b then f3:=f3+t
else
if len(f4) <= b then f4:=f4+t
else
if len(f5) <= b then f5:=f5+t
else
if len(f6) <= b then f6:=f6+t;
create another formula and put this in a text object...
//@display1 formula
whileprintingrecords;
stringvar f1;
create another formula and put this in the text object beside the above formula...
//@display2 formula
whileprintingrecords;
stringvar f2;
repeat the steps for creating new formulae 'til you've got one for stringvar f6;
if you want to reset the string running total on a Group level then also create a reset formula for the group header.
whileprintingrecords;
stringvar f1:= ''; stringvar f2:= ''; stringvar f3:= '';
stringvar f4:= ''; stringvar f5:= ''; stringvar f6:= '';

  • ERROR(web elements)- A string can be at most 65534 characters long

    Hello
    I  have a 2 level dynamic cascading prompt in crystal reports. 1st level distinct count of values->223 but
    second level distinct count of values->30,133. I am able to track these values in the sub report.
    while passing the values from subreport to main report to show as a list box using select cascade...i am getting the run time error
    "A string can be at most 65534 characters long" in the subreport formula.
    please provide me a solution for this as soon as possible.

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Jamie
    Thanks for your reply. I separated the list of values as you specified in step A in the query itself.
    Now I am able to pass the values from sub report to main report.
    But not getting idea to concatenate the separated list of values in to a single list box on the main report.
    [In the main report-> I have created 4 parameters in place of 2 parameters like [MFG_Site1, MFG_Site2, SKU1, and SKU2]
    According to the Syntax,  I have used the same parameter name for element name in weselectcascade function.
    in the main report, created 2 weselectcascade functions  for Mfgsite(MFG_Site1,MFG_Site2)
                                              2 weselectcascade functions for SKU (SKU1, SKU2)
    2 separate list boxes I am getting on the report (one for A to M, other for N to Z)
    Please provide me a solution to combine these two in to a single list box.
    Thanks

  • Error: String can be at most 65534 characters

    Hi,
    I am using Crystal XI
    I have a string variable in my formula that gathers log ids found when report is run. I then use this variable to display records in my subreports. But when I run a report with wider search criteria I get an error - Error: String can be at most 65534 characters.
    How can I get rid of this error? Below is my formula
    WhilePrintingRecords;
    Global StringVar Array_Name;
    numbervar slno;
    Array_Name:= Array_Name & Cstr({PMP.LOG_ID}, 0) & ",";
    if {@TimelyComplete}= 0 then
    slno:= slno+ 1;
    What would be an alternative solution for this problem?
    Thanks for your help!
    -Ekta

    Storing the values would look something like this (basic syntax):
    global vals(1) as string
    global nextIndex as number
    if nextindex = 0 then
      nextIndex = 1
    end if
    if len(vals(nextIndex)) + len({field_to_add}) > 65530 then
      nextIndex = nextIndex + 1
      redim preserve vals(nextIndex)
      vals(nextIndex) = {field_to_add}
    else
      vals(nextIndex) = vals(nextIndex) + ", " + {field_to_add}
    end if

  • The JSP WYSIWYG Editor can't display most Unicode characters

    Eclipse supports display of Unicode characters very well since version 3. However, NitroX couldn't display most most of them. Well, besides characters from other non-Western European languages, NitroX can't even display characters that it's supposed to support. Well, that's what I think so. I mean, when we type the & character, we have the whole list of character entity references amongst which we could find &and; &nabla; &or; &rarr; but which are not displayed correctly. And many more are in this case.
    Is this a feature or a bug? By "feature", it means that we can't get them in free version.

    I have exactly the same problem. I support web pages for 25 European countries. I've not seen Nitrox support any unicode characters. Until M7 answers this question or fixes the editor, you can use the Eclipse editor to see and edit the text.

  • Validation Rule - Should contain only alphabets and can be upto 4 characters long

    Hi, I am using MDS 2012 and want to create a business rule for data validation which says,
    "Should contain only alphabets and can be up to 4 characters long". How can I create such a rule in MDS? Also the Code and Name attributes are 250 characters by default. How to restrict them to 4 characters if business need them to be 4 or
    less character?
    Any help appreciated.
    Thanks, Ashish Singh

    When creating a business rule, under Actions there is "Must be maximum length of" and "must contain patern".

  • Unexpected "result of the string concatenation is too long" error

    Hello,
    I am using Oracle Database 11.2.0.
    When querying my database with a common table expression which concatenates VARCHAR2 strings, I receive an ORA-01489 error although I'm doubting that I am concatenating more than 4000 characters.
    To be more precise, I have a table entity which basically stores XML elements including their parent element and their sibling position among its siblings. The CREATE statement for this table is listed below.
    CREATE TABLE Entity (
    ID NUMBER(10,0) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
    Name VARCHAR2(100) NOT NULL,
    Parent NUMBER(10,0) REFERENCES Entity(ID),
    Sibling_Pos NUMBER(2,0) DEFAULT 0
    Now, I would like for all elements to be concatenated with their ancestor elements to a structure like this:
    "/root_element(sibling_pos)/.../ancestor_element(sibling_pos)/parent_element(sibling_pos)/current_element(sibling_pos)"
    (where root_element, ancestor_element, parent_element and current_element are just values from the name column of the entity table)
    In order to achieve this, I use a common table expression which concatenates the name and sibling_pos values as shown below:
    WITH entity_cte (lvl, id, path) AS (
    SELECT 1 AS lvl, id, '/' || name || '(0' || sibling_pos || ')' AS path
    FROM entity
    WHERE parent IS NULL
    UNION ALL (
    SELECT lvl + 1 AS lvl, e.id, entity_cte.path || '/' || e.name || '(' || cast(e.sibling_pos AS VARCHAR2(2)) || ')' AS path
    FROM entity_cte, entity e
    WHERE entity_cte.id = e.parent
    SELECT lvl, id, path
    FROM entity_cte e
    After inserting certain values, I get the ORA-01489 error, that the result of the string concatenation is too long. The maximum is referred to as being 4000 characters for VARCHAR2 in the oracle documentation and in various websites. Of course, it is clear to me by just using the common table expression like that, I could run into such an error. However, due to the structure of my XML documents, I doubted that the resulting strings would be more than 4000 characters long.
    So, I rearranged my query in order to count the characters to be concatenated instead of actually concatenating them. The query is stated below as well, the changes are marked bold:
    WITH entity_cte (lvl, id, path) AS (
    SELECT 1 AS lvl, id, length('/' || name ||  '(0' || sibling_pos || ')') AS path
    FROM entity
    WHERE parent IS NULL
    UNION ALL (
    SELECT lvl + 1 AS lvl, e.id, entity_cte.path + length('/' || e.name || '(' || cast(e.sibling_pos AS VARCHAR2(2)) || ')') AS path
    FROM entity_cte, entity e
    WHERE entity_cte.id = e.parent
    SELECT lvl, id, path
    FROM entity_cte e
    ORDER BY path DESC
    The result of the query gives me a maximum length of 319 characters.
    To be sure, I also checked the maximum level depth (indicated by the column named lvl in the common table expression), meaning the maximum number of elements in my path (the concatenated string). The result is 18. As I use VARCHAR2(100) for the name column and add 5 charcaters in each level, the maximum number of characters expected for 18 levels would be 1890.
    So, now I wonder is the ORA-01489 maybe raised for another reason? Or is there something else I am missing?
    Any help would be appreciated. Further suggestions to track down the error are more than welcome. Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the hint, BluShadow.
    Still, I don't reach that limit of 1000 characters with my actual data (yet). I understand that if my data changes, I might run into that error with the given query. But I don't understand why this error is raised with the given data I have. The longest string in the column "name" is 32 characters long up to now. When I'm adding 5 characters on each level and I only have max 18 levels that should only result in max 2664 bytes.
    @odie_63
    The database characterset is: AL32UTF8. If I googled correctly, than it just confirms what BluShadow said, that one character is represented by max 4 byte.
    Regarding the sample data, the XML document that I am inserting and which causes the error comprises 1058 nodes. That means I have 1058 entries in my entity table. I think it would be no sense posting all of it here, but is there a way that I can attach a text file containing an insert script to this post?
    Some sample data from the entity table orderd by the length of the string in the name column are shown below.

  • I can't access most .mil sites pretty sure I just need it to let me add the security exception but it doesn't give me the option anymore.

    Ever since I got the last two updates for Firefox I can't access most .mil sites like ako or even the us army library Europe site. These sites use to come up as untrusted sites that I just accepted and continued life. However now it goes straight to server not found page. I know the site links and bookmarks are good because they are what I used to use. I've read some of the other help situations that are similar and I can see some of the old certificates in the advanced options up nothing I've done in there had changed anything.

    To try to distinguish between a change in Firefox and a problem in your settings, could you do a three-minute experiment?
    '''Create a new Firefox profile'''
    A new profile will have your system-installed plugins (e.g., Flash) and extensions (e.g., security suite toolbars), but no themes, other extensions, or other customizations. It also should have completely fresh settings databases and a fresh cache folder.
    Exit Firefox and start up in the Profile Manager using Start > search box (or Run):
    firefox.exe -P
    ''Be careful not to delete anything in this dialog.''
    Any time you want to switch profiles, exit Firefox and return to this dialog.
    Click the Create Profile button, assign a name like Sept9, and skip the option to change the folder location. Then start Firefox in the new profile you created.
    Do the sites work any differently?
    When returning to the Profile Manager, you might be tempted to use the Delete Profile button. But... it's a bit too easy to accidentally delete your "real" profile, so I recommend resisting the temptation. If you do want to clean up later, I suggest making a backup of all your profiles first in case something were to go wrong.

  • ITunes Can't locate most music files

    I updated iTunes and it can't locate most of my music. I'd say only about 10% and that being the most recent stuff I added is all it can locate... it asks me to look for the file and I point it exactly to where it should be.
    I searched around and some have had this happen when they move files or store on an external HD whose name (ie F: or G:) switches. I did not do any of that, though, and everything is where it should be. The only answer seems to be reimporting the songs, I did that, but I have lost all my playlists, ratings, and counts.
    I think this is a serious issue and no one seems to have an answer on how to solve it.

    Welcome to AD!
    Your best hope is to see if there is an ITL file in a folder named *Previous iTunes Libraries* that will have most of the metadata.

  • I can't see the Greek characters using ADOBE reader

    Dear colleagues,
    Your help will be appreciated for the following problem:
    I have a tool which converts IBM I (AS400) spool file to PDF.
    The file has been copied to Windows environment.
    On generated PDF I can’t see the Greek characters using ADOBE reader v10.1.4.
    If I use Notepad to display the file, I can see the Greek characters.
    It seems that following PDF keywords are not recognized form PDF reader.
    /BaseFont /Courier
    /Encoding /WinAnsiEncoding  
    I have tried to use various fonts and encoding (cp1253, ISO8859-7) with no luck.
    On PDF reader folder there is the following file:C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 10.0\Resource\TypeSupport\Unicode\Mappings\win\CP1253.TXT
    I believe somehow to tell PDF reader to use this encoding.
    What actions required on our Win/PDF environment setup?
    What actions required on PDF file generation? (/BaseFont, /Enconding, etc)

    Too many assumptions! It is much, much more complicated than your attempted solutions. The PDF Reference shows the contents of WinAnsiEncoding; this is as for your first example. I feel you probably need to spend very much more time reading this book.
    In the second example you are using a different code page (or other encoding method) to view the data. This is not going to help you because WinAnsiEncoding is fixed in all environments and does not use the code page.
    To use greek characters you will need the PDF to
    - use fonts which contain greek characters (the built in Courier PostScript font probably does not)
    - use an Encoding which references the greek characters. There are no built-in encodings that do this
    You cannot make simple cosmetic changes to this file to do this. The style of simplified font with no FontDescriptor can be used only for the built-in 14 fonts, which cannot be used with a greek encoding.
    Commonly, a combination of the greek letters in the Symbol font and the Latin letters in another font are used by constant font switching. This is of course only a solution for Greek, not other non-Latin alphabets.
