Hi All,

 

I have CSV file with a column having comments. Part of the comments is getting truncated when I run the workflow. I changed the field length in input tool. But it did not work. Can anyone help me ?

In addition to increase the length to a large number, you maybe also want to check the delimiter setting.

How would I do that ? On what basis and what delimiter?

Hi @bbaisil,

 

Are you viewing the comments using a Browse tool? If you are not, try using a Browse tool. Without a Browse tool, long strings in the Results table are usually truncated for viewing.

 

Cheers,

Lelia

Thanks for all the responses and sorry for being late to reply.

Browse tool did not help me either.

I am still facing the issue.

Please see the attached screenshot. Wherever there is a redsample.PNG mark, complete information is not available. as in the example record #28, information is cut from 'as thei'

Hi,@bbaisil 

 

1- Please add browse tool after your muddle step.

2- Click browse tool , ---> Action ---> New Windows --->New Windows(Selected Records)

3- Double click your field [General Comments:] in record #28, then all content will be show in above table.

4- Then you can see different if your field size enough.
