 |  |  |  |  |
The following message might be generated when changing the length value for a Computed Column.
The LENGTH value is out-of-range. It should be a value between 3 and 8, inclusive.
The message will most likely occur when setting a Length value that is not between 3 and 8 for a Character column.
To circumvent the problem, accept the default value for the Length value for Character columns.
