Some database columns that contain RTF are too short to hold meaningful data #208

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
There are a number of data fields on various BioLink objects (Sites, Material 
etc) whose User Interface components collect and display Rich Text Format based 
text. RTF markup inflates the size of the data, often to the point where even a 
small amount of text coupled with the RTF mark up can exceed the original size 
of the the column in the database.

A script needs to be developed that can resize these columns (preferably to 
'text', which has no size constraint), and also to modify the stored procedures 
that are used to update these values.
