Preview / Append fails with text fields with greater than 255 characters #183

Open chris-fox opened 7 years ago

It looks like the staging database is hard coding the text field it creates to a length of 255 even if the source and target support larger than that. So it fails when it attempts to append data into the staging feature class.

should we just move it to 2000?

chris-fox commented 7 years ago

Why not just use the value of the target to truly reflect the output?

MikeMillerGIS commented 7 years ago

or that :)

I vote for 2^31-1.
