Description
Hi Ron,
as every patent number can have it's own date when it was granted, it's not unusual to usw sth. like
International Patent Number PCT/EP 99/01008 (Feb 10, 1999)
Patent Number US 6,713,256 B1 (Mar 30, 2004)biblio_issn with length 24 and biblio_section with length 10 don't accept such long strings. Would you mind to increase those in the DB and the edit form to e.g. 40?
#1
Uh, forgot biblio_number, that is even worse. It's user for the application number, which is quite long. E.g.:
PCT Patent application, European patent office 10.08.2001So this should be sth. like length 80 or so I guess...
#2
I'm going to change everything currently less than 128 to varchar(128)
That should resolve your issues.
Ron
