Character Limit in Cells

Hi,

I keep in encountering a problem in some of my spread sheets where I receive an error stating “Max 20 Characters Allowed” in the cells of one particular column. The spreadsheet was originally an Excel file that I downloaded for work related use. Is there any way to remove that limitation?

Thanks!

It looks like you may have set Data Validation on that column. To check this in LO/OO:-

  1. (select range of cells)
  2. Menu:-Data Validity... tab:Error Alert
  3. Is your error message in there?

If so, you can reverse/adjust the validation & alerts.

If this helps then please tick the answer (:heavy_check_mark:).
