Hi All,

Can anybody explain about 32k problem and 64k problem.

In designer help its not clear about this issues.

32k means 32000 bytes is it correct?

64k means 64000 bytes is it correct?

I think these are lotus notes standard error and how to over come this?

I think that you should find a lot of related topics about the 32k and field limitation problems.

Take a deeper look into the forum search:

You’re right 32K = 32000 as K normally means 1000. However, for computers we normally mean 32 KB.

Therefore, technically there are 1024 bytes / KB and thus 32KB = 32 KB * 1024 (bytes / KB) = 32768 bytes. Most of the time “we” don’t care about this level of detail.

I honestly never remember this infomration except for the exams and looked these few examples up. Some of this infomration maybe out of date as it’s an older book.

For @DBColumn, there is a limitation that the function can only return 64KB. Therefore, if you’re performing a looking using a DBColumn, the maximum amount of information you can return is 65536 bytes.

Text field: hold upto 15KB
