There seem to be a limit of 32 items for list fields. Is this hard-coded
anywhere? Can it be changed?
I tried working around this by splitting my big list into two smaller
lists. This actually works pretty well. For the view, I created a
calculated field which displays the value of whichever menu has
an item selected. Here's the script:
(? (seq %1 'N/A') %2 %1)
Or a slightly cleaner version which leaves the field blank when nothing
in either menu is selected:
(? (seq %1 'N/A')
(? (seq %2 'N/A')
''
%2
)
%1
)
This works nicely.
Unfortunately, I'm having trouble changing my database to incorporate
the changes. I'm getting Fatal Exceptions whenever I add or modify
fields (or when I duplicate the database). These happen both with 1.0.3
and the Oct 14 snapshot.
The crash dialog doesn't provide any info. What can I do to help
diagnose these crashes?
I do know that one of the crashes I was having is from the palm-db-tools
converter - It doesn't respect the 32 list item limit: instead it just
adds all the list items to the pdb, and corrupts the db in the process.

P.S. Pilot-DB is great! Big thanks to the developers!
