Developer Studio WF 8.0.08 - FTM files - truncation issue
I have experienced what appears to be a bug in Dev Studio 8.0.08.

I have a fex file, a mas file, and an ftm file that I copied from one environment to another within the reporting server area of the Dev Studio Explorer. After drag/drop, the data rows in the ftm file are truncated to 80 characters. Editing in the text editor or external text editor makes no difference – the data rows are truncated at 80 characters.

I imagine the only way to solve this for now is to use the Windows file system to copy the files.

Anyone else notice this?

This seems strangely familiar, but from very long ago in an OS far far away.

I reckon, its Case time

Pity the lost knowledge of an old programmer!

Yes, it does sound vaguely familiar. I am into my third month of a 12 month sabbatical from opening cases so I'll do as I usually do - find a workaround.

Cheers.
