Message Text
Visible length is shorter than defined length. No conversion
Help Document
Diagnosis
You are editing an input/output field for which the "scrollable" attribute is set, and want to change it into a box. The visible length of the screen element is less than the defined length.
System Response
You cannot scroll in a box text. The system therefore cannot convert the output field into a box with variable text if the visible and defined lengths differ.
Procedure
Before converting the field, remove the "scrollable" attribute. You can do this in the "attributes" screen or in the element list.
