We need to increase the number of characters that "Textbox #1" under "Checkout Setup Step 1" in System Settings can save.

We're using it as a place for customers to add a gift card. Now it only enables the user to input 23 characters.

In the Smith_Customer table the field UDTB1 is where the data is saved. It's set to Varchar(50). Can I just increase the size to (250) and make corresponding updates to Smith_AddCustomer and Smith_UpdateCustomer stored procedures?

Would I need to update any other fields/sp/views?  

Thanks

I've followed the steps in the other thread, but to no avail... it ends up referencing a different issue.

I need to make the UDTB1 field in the customer table accept more characters.

This is what I've done so far.

This is the updated from the Step1.ascx so I have a larger input field.

In the Database:

Updated the field UDTB1 in the Smith_Customer to be varchar (500).

Updated the SP:

Smith_UpdateCustomer and Smith_AddCustomer so the UDTB1 field is varchar (500)

What else do I need to do?

UPDATE:
I was able to run an update query with a long copy block and it updated the field okay... the problem is getting the copy into the field from the form.
