Hi,
I would like to ask if there is a certain max value in the Order field because we have tried using values around 1000 - 2000 but it seem to not be working with that values.
In this case, i would like to ask what is the maximum input value for Order field?
Moreover, what is the best practice in using this field?
Thanks for the help.

Open the context menu (Right Click on banner) and navigate to 'Show XML'.
Browse down the XML tree until you find <max_length> as shown below.
If you want to change this value, open a list of records for the table in question.
Personalize the list and add the max length field and increase the value via a cell edit for the field in question.
I've seen Fuji do some weird things around defaulting the max length value to be lower than what is practical.

Hi Paul,
Max length is 40, what does this mean? is it 40 digit number? if it is 40 digit number then why does the 2000 values not being accepted?
