Datatype Text is it sopported?

Hi,
TS 6.5
OD 6.2
database informix

i have a column whose data type is "text"

< column name="ABC" data-type="text"
allows-null="no" is-url="no"
value-from-field="/a/0/b/0/c/0" / >
Even my table has data type as text
But , when i deploy my dcr, the column "ABC" is not getting populated.
i get this below message in my log file
DBD: Column: ABC, field: /a/0/b/0/c/0, Index: 9,Converting '...........' to LONGVARCHAR
As such i don't get any error.

Have anybody faced this problem before.

Can you chk with : - value-from-field="/a/0/b/0/c/0" it might needs as
value-from-field="a/0/b/0/c/0"

I.e. Remove first "/"

If still fails..Do upload the deployment log file.

Please look at the OD RN for your version of OD and look under section "Supported Data Types for Database Deployments". This will list all of the data types supported for each supported DB. You asked for "Text" data type (I am assuming you are on MS SQL Server?) which is supported in the OD 620+ .

HTH!

I just ran through Release Notes for our OD.
It says it does not support "text" datatype for Informix.
That answers my question.
Thanks.
