Hello All,
I am building a custom application and I require some form fields to have a field label of 250+ characters. Is it possible to do this for one table/application only?
Thanks
Harry

What would be the potential pitfalls of increasing the max field label length globally?
There would only be one table using these increased labels so as far as I can tell, there would be no impact on any other modules.

Hi Harry,
From development point of view, it is feasible. But again, it is not a good idea to have a longer label, as it will make impact globally. Check out Brad's response here in this thread: Change maximum label length?
I hope this helps.Please mark correct/helpful based on impact

Could look to change the field label via an onLoad Client Script - don't think that has a limitation - though not tried
