Posted on by 2

Dear All,

 

While creating a new column named "Bin" on a table in Dataverse, when I give the Description as Bin its not accepting, is there any specific reason it restricts word Bin it accepts lower case "bin" and upper case "BIN" but not the case "Bin"

    Hello @Ramanan 

     

    As per OOB, there is no such behavior in DATAVERSE. I tried creating the same and its working as expected

    you can try this workaround:

    put another description, before saving the table, click again on the column you are creating, update the description and after save the table

    I have found that occasionally when I am creating a new column, the Description field behaves oddly-- it doesn't let me type after the first couple characters. I suspect that may be what's happening to you.  Usually I can paste what I want into the Description field when it misbehaves like that. Sometimes typing nonsense in the place where you want "n" (in your case) to go, then finishing with the letters you actually want and then deleting the nonsense works.

     

    I'm kind of glad that this is not only happening to me because it's way too woo-woo to make a good bug report without broad evidence.
