Hi,

in a Word document, I have a dropdown control.
The ".text" column of the dropdown control contains a list of items
The ".value" column contains description.


When the user select an item, it displays the description.

It seems that the lenght of the description can't exceed 255 characters.

Can it be modify somewhere?

The Value limit is fixed. If you need more than 255 characters, you'll need to store the content elsewhere (e.g. in a document variable in the document or its template).
