Muhammad,
Create a local variable of type text and use that as the source expression for the control and set the MultiLine for it, which will allow you to enter more than 250 characters and on closing the page you need to split that text and insert into the actual comment text field. Check out this blog. You need to do the same while showing the page to take the value from the comment field and assign to the text variable.
yes sir not working in nav 2018
here: mibuso.com/.../waldo-dynamics-nav-notepad-waldonavpad-v3.1
Not sure if it still works with NAV2018
so is there any way to add large text ?
Yes but this code is only to show how to handle a large text with Blob field and Instream/Outstream.
You cannot do that natively. A text field in the UI has a max value of 250 chars.
NAV Table allows max of 250 Characters, Easiest way to do is add 2 columns.
Description and Description 2. Add 250 characters to each after splitting.
In the example you shared the link he used
a dotnet type ("
// EditCtrl | DotNet | Archer.TextEdit.'Archer.TextEdit, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=1465b259ee2284cb' ") which are not available in nav 2018.
Not possible. You can split the text in more lines or using Blobs instead of Text fields. More info with solution here:
