Documentation
Definition
The field is assigned to the length check of the text for the title. The text is stored in field "DD04T-REPTEXT". For all the languages in which the text is maintained, there is a check whether the text is longer than the maximum length permitted for the corresponding screen field according to the DDIC table "DD04L". The field value contains 1 byte severity (severity of the error), 2 bytes work area and 3 bytes message number of the error message from table "T100".
Example: -------------------------
| W | D | O | 3 | 1 | 3 |
-------------------------
If a table is too long, a warning or error message is written in the activation log, depending on the severity entered in the field value. The work area and the number of the error message are entered in the field value by the check routine.
Forcing the test:
If the value of field "FORCE_ON" in the check list "DCDTELACT" is not equal to "SPACE" (i.e. true), an error message is written in the activation log if the length is exceeded in the online language, the severity being of no relevance here.
