Issue/Introduction

An issue with the generation of the READ request.

1. Create an object SCRI, WF with the following in the Process:

:beginread
 : read &LS_OPTS#, "", "Parameters", "0002,0004,0010,0012,0019,0021,0022,0023,0031,0039,0044,0046,0049,0054,0060,0061,0062,0070,0076,0077,0079,0080,0081,0082,0083,0085,0087,0090,0091,0102,0110,0115,0119,0120,0130,0132,0149,0151,0158,0159,0160,0161,0165,0167,0169,0172,0184,0186,0190,0191,0192,0194,0195,0196,0199,0200,0201,0202,0203,0206,0207,0208,0210,0213,0215,0217"
 :endread
 :p &LS_OPTS#

the default value should have more then 255 chars.

2. Start the object.

3. The AWI displays a 'cut-off' value where not all chars are present - NOK!
