Max Character Length for Text Variables

Hi folks,
Quick question:
Does OPA have a max character length for text variables?
-Isamu

Obviously common sense prevails here. The system is unlikely to perform very well if you start passing around MBs of data in text variables!

    This is a fairly well documented issue. (At least, I documented it a few years ago in "CBO Fundamentals").
    Oracle only considers the first few bytes of a character string when calculating selectivity, so you can get all sorts of anomalous results.
    You could start by reading a couple of notes I wrote some time ago - this might give you a few pointers for your particular case:

  • No value found for Text Variable

    Hi All,
    I have 2 different variable created on 0VERSION. One for user entry and second one is text variable with replacement path as "text".
    I have 3 different columns in the report.
    One is Restricted KF, based on user entry variable. Heading of this column has to be Result (&ZVERTXT&), where ZVERTXT is my text varaible.
    Now, in second column I m using formula to calculate percentage. Heading of this column is &ZVERTXT& (%).
    Now, in third column i m again using formula using the same KF as in first column. But this time, in the heading this text variable thorws "no value found error"
    can anybody help me out in this issue.. ??

    Hi,
    This is the proble to get value for text variables with Replacement path ,in case system is getting 2 reference values .So it get confusion and says that <i>No value found for Text Variable </i> .
    So as a work around :
    Instead of a text variable with automatic substitution(replace ment path) from another characteristic value, you can also create a text variable that is filled by a customer exit.In the code you  assign the Text value by looking into TEXT table with the value you got from User entry variable( which is used in first Restricted KF).
    With rgds,

  • What is the include for text variable?

    Dear Friends
    I am trying to add a customer exit for text variables.
    I have done variable exits for things like fiscal period but not for customer exit TEXT variables.
    I could not find any text variable code in the include ZXRSRU01  .
    Please advise what should be the program name?
    Is it found in a different include?
    regards
    Bass

    Hi Bass,
    Customer exit for text variables is also the same how we create customer exits for characterisitics variable. As per the clarity what i got from ur question.
    I'll just explain a small program in customer exits which will act as a text variable.
    Go to SE38 -->
    Display the program ZXRSRU01 --> (This can be done only if you have added the enhancement of the system from CMOD)
    Then add ur following case statement to the existing code.
    After all the data declarations start ur main program
    when 'YEAR_CUST'.
      if i_step = 2.
        l_year1 = sy-datum+2(2). //Data declaration
        l_mon1 = sy-datum+4(2).  // Data Declaration
       l_date1 = sy-datum+6(2). // Data Declaration
         case l_mon1. //case statement which has the technical name of ur Exit variable
         when  '01'. // This statement generally checks the whether the given variable entry has a value '01' then enters the statement here and returns the value as JAN //
              CONCATENATE 'JAN' l_year1 into dat.
              l_s_range-low = dat.
              l_s_range-high = l_s_range-low.
              l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
              l_s_range-opt = 'EQ'.
              APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
              endcase.
             ENDIF.
    Hope this helps u and have given the explanation as per the understanding of your questionand can give more clarity to you.

  • Changing a variables length for text input in Captivate 6

    I am using eLearning CS6 (non-subscription I believe, but no one at my office can confirm) and use a machine where all software is deployed via push from IT. The ability to check for updates has been removed from me.
    I need to be able to have users enter data into the course and have it both be forwarded on to our database AND appear in later segments of the course.
    I recall being able to update the TEB variable length in previous versions but can not find the option anywhere in CS6. or perhaps I'm imaging it.
    I am running version 6.0.1.240 and there is no Format option in my TEB properties. I do not see alignment options, and instead see Characters as a menu above the Shadow & Reflection option.
    I do know where to set the value in a text caption box. However, I seem to be limited to entering a single variable in the caption field in order for this to be option. However, there are times where we'd rather have multiple variables strung together on a single line, or a word or two of static text appearing before or after the variable.
    If I want to string the user entered data from multiple variables into a single caption box there appears to be no way to change the variable's character length from 15 to a higher value.
    Does anyone know of another way to work around this other than through the use of multiple caption boxes?
    I've been driving myself a bit batty trying to think of a way around the 1 caption 1 variable limit...
    Thanks.
    Note: Please don't advise me to upgrade. I've already been told the office will not pay for an update to the software so quickly on the heels of our upgrade from CS 5.5 to CS6 (happened within a 6 month span).

    15 characters is the default when you insert the variable into a text caption.  But you can set this to anything from 1 to about 250...as long as you use the Insert Variable icon in the Properties tab > Format accordion to insert the variable.  Look for the field in the dialog that allows you to specify the variable's display length.

  • Errors: Length for text entry field must be between 1 and 32

    Hi Guys,
    I have has the following error messgage when defining and using a text variable in a series of columns in a characteristic structure.  In addition the text display does not work for 1 specific calculated key figure, It just displays the name of the text variable.  Where ever this type of calculation is used I get the text variable tecnical name displayed!
    i.e &0T_FPER& -2 % on LY where calc =
    '&0T_FPER& -2 Actual'/'&0T_FPER& -2 Last Year' -1) * 100
    There is a calc KF as above for -1 % on LY, and LY
    Why do i get the above error message and how can I get the text variable to display for the this Calc Key Figure?
    Thanks
    DV

    Hi Depesh,
    I had the same issue and I solved it by moving the rest of the text beside the Text Variable to the next line. I.e.,
    &0T_FPER&
    -2 %
    To do this just go to the end of the text variable and click enter.
    Hope this helps.

  • No value found for text variable ZTFYEAR

    Hi,
    I have used Text variable ZTFYEAR with replacement path on fiscal year 0FISCYEAR. I have three columns in my report for value for current fiscal year, fiscal year-2, fiscal year-1.When I use the text variable with replacement path , it shows in the header &ZTFYEAR&Value instead of showing 2007value, 2005 Value , 2006 Value.
    Any bosy can help?
    Error message :
    Message no. BRAIN612
    Diagnosis
    Text variable ZTFYEAR, which is found in the item " Values", needs to be replaced by the value of the characteristic 0FISCYEAR. This value is not clearly specified in the item " Values". Therefore, no replacement takes place.
    Thanks,
    Ajay

    Hi Ajay,
    Is this teaxt variables created on 0FISCYEAR?
    if yes
    then did you include 0FISCYEAR in your selection while creating a row or a column as the part of the structure?
    If you are using 0FISCYEAR and then still not getting the value replaced check in your amster data if you ahve the key,small text,  middle text and long text which ever you have used while creating your text variable has values in it or if it's blank?
    hope this helps!!

  • How do I click the '1st' button in the character panel for texts?

    I'm having trouble figuring  out how to click the '1st' button in the character panel because i need to write 25th anniversary and needs the 'th' to be lowercase on the side. I'm new so please help! thanks.

    I think the availability of Oridinals depends on the font.
    Quote from the Reference:
    Typefaces include many characters in addition to the ones you see on your keyboard. Depending on the font, these characters can include ligatures, fractions, swashes, ornaments, ordinals, titling and stylistic alternates, superior and inferior characters, old-style figures, and lining figures. A glyph is a specific form of a character. For example, in certain fonts, the capital letter A is available in several forms, such as swash and small cap.
    But one can achieve something similar by changing the font size and baseline shift for the affected characters.

  • What is the max clob length for Forms 6i with most recent updates.

    I am trying to determine what the largest clob is that can be handled by Forms 6i with the latest patches installed. I have searched the forum and the help files and have found a bunch of different answers, but nothing useful - nothing current.
    I have a record that has a clob field with 28,213 characters (including spaces) or 9902 characters (without spaces). Saved as a text file, it is 29kb.
    To read and work with the data in Forms, I have to set the DATA: Maximum Length to 110000, almost 3 times the length of the actual data. I can read and edit the field without problems.
    My questions are:
    1. what is the maximum size of data in a clob field that will work with Forms 6i and Oracle 10R2 database (Forms with the most recent update)?
    2. what is the Maximum Length - It certainly doesn't seem to be character. How do I set this - 3x Actual????
    Thanks for the help
    Glenn

    In theory it should be 64k bytes. In practice its often a bit less than that.

  • Director imposes maximum line length for text?

    I'm trying to learn Director again after years away and so much has changed. I can't find the answer for this after searching. To the best of my knowledge, I'm using the default installed settings for Dir. 11
    I've been opening and updating old Dir. 6.5 files in Dir 11 and the text gets mangled. Long lines (10-20 inches) of headline text get the right side chopped off. My new movie size is 2560x1550 (for 30" monitor).
    I'm trying to recreate these long lines of headline text (most are 48 pt helvetica x 20 + inches wide, some much bigger pt. size) by typing it in the text panel. This is difficult to describe: After 20 inches of text, according to the ruler, Director begins condensing the whole line, compacting it more as the text panel double-vertical-line expander bar is dragged right and expanded, opening the text field so lines don't break to a second line. Director alters the letter width and spacing of the line more as the panel expander is dragged to the right, basically smashing the line of text flush left more with every increment the panel is expanded right. If the text entry panel is expanded to the full width of my 30" monitor before typing any letters, then all the characters subsequently typed are distorted and compressed as they are typed in.  This occurs with every font.
    What is going on here? How to create  line of live text longer than 20" that Director doesn't smash together?
    TIA!
