Error description

  • Rational Business Developer V7.5.1.5:
    
    The EGL Text Form Editor allows new constant fields to be added
    on top of other fields which results in the following message
    after the form is saved:
    
    IWN.VAL.5337.e 6/3 The form TSAMPLE field * is overlapping field
                       *, this is not allowed.

    ****************************************************************
    EGL Text Form Editor allows new constant fields to be added
    on top of other fields. This was occurring because the
    maximum length for a new field has not been restricted by
    existence of next field.
    

Problem conclusion

  • To fix this developer introduced Maximum allowed length
    which is the maximum length not producing any overlap on
    next field. So the length has to be less than or equal to
    maximum allowed length.
    

Temporary fix
