When I create a synonym from an oracle table with a field that is varchar2 of 2000, it is defined in the mas file as a text field. I only want the first 35 characters, but when I try to use compute and substr function is tells me that I cannot use substr on a text field.
In the MASTER FILE (mas) there are to FIELD FORMAT COLUMNS the first one tell WebFOCUS how to use it, the second is the actual. Try changing the first one to an A30.
