Problem Note 6324: Text Entry control may truncate values greater than 8 digits
If you have a Text Entry control within a SAS/AF FRAME entry with a
dataType of numeric and you enter a value of greater than 8 digits,
it may be truncated after the first 8 digits. This is due to an
internal limit that was inadvertently applied to the value.
To circumvent this problem, you will need to either upgrade to Release
8.2 or use an alternate object, such as a Version 6 Text Entry object,
in place of the text entry control.
