string

Options for specifying the size of the variable.

Maximum Length:

Select this option to specify a maximum number of characters that the string variable can store.

Unlimited:

Select this option to specify that the string variable can store any amount of character data.

Important: For installations of LiveCycle ES2.5 with an Oracle database, errors occur on the LiveCycle server when you change the maximum length of a string variable to Unlimited for an activate process. The resulting errors deactivate the process and prevent it from becoming active again.

If you need a string variable that has no size constraints and the process is already activated, re-create the string variable and select the Unlimited option in the variable properties. Do not change an existing string variable to have an unlimited size when a maximum length has been set.

Properties for specifying default property values for the variable.

Default Value:

The default length of the variable. Enter the text to use as the string value.
