You can delete the existing table mainenance view and create a new one

Utilities--> table maintenance generator.

Hi Janapathi,

When you create a table maintenance, it creates a view through which it allows you to update the table entries. so if u have changed the table attributes u now require to change the view attributes by recreating the table maintenance for the table.

hi friend

you can change the length of the field. you no need to delete the table and recreate. Instead of the after changing the length activate and goto>utility>database maintanence .

click that and u will see the big button at the last that is adjust the table button click that. your table will automatically set to new length.

inthat screen there is option called ACTIVE and ADJUSTDATABASE.

once active that table automatically changes are reflected to particular table.

Thank's.
