ddev commented on OFBIZ-12021:
------------------------------
Sure, I can do that no problem. I've also changed "very-long" in mssql to "VARCHAR(MAX)" instead of "TEXT".
Posting a new diff.
What's the preferred way of giving patches? All I did to create my attachement was to type "git diff".

> "description" and "comment" fields are restricted to 255 char. However after some research I found that all the supported databases support longer then 255 char
> I would expect users to want to write more then 255 char in a comment (I know I personally can).
> I have included diff of my proposed solution as a attachment (I am unfamiliar with the procedures for submitting patches here)
> A discussion has been started on dev ML:
