question re: id range
« on: November 13, 2009, 12:13:53 pm »
Hi Nostra,

Can you please tell me what the id range is.

i am trying to convince a friend to convert from movie collector to pvd ( a noble cause indeed ) :)
he has over 3000 disks and uses the id no to catalogue them.

eg 1-1000 is tv shows 5000-10000 is movies
His numbering system goes up to 10,000

I imported all his movies and posters, but

When i imported the id No, i noticed that it imported 4 digits.
is this the limit to the no of entries ie. 9999 ?

thanks heaps

Thx for promoting PVD, by the way ;)

1. Maybe you just do not see the 5th digit? (make the field bigger in the Skin file)
2. Maybe there is a problem with the import?

It was skin length.
Changed this and can see 5 digit id.
Is there a way to make this (field lengths) dynamic based on the amount of data?

You could try the autosize="true" parameter, but the control can not get bigger than the column it is in.
