Maximum number of fields for data set?

Hi,

I am using BIRT 2.5 on the Eclipse 3.5 platform in Ubuntu 9.04. I recently upgraded from BIRT 2.2.2, which I was running in Windows XP.

I have a joint dataset that combines two other datasets made from jdbc mysql queries. There are 81 fields combined between the two source datasets, and I have added an additional 13 calculated columns. When I originally designed this report in BIRT 2.2.2, I had no trouble working with this dataset. However, in BIRT 2.5, I can only see the source data fields plus the first four calculated columns when I look at this dataset in the Data Explorer view. This means I can't add the last 9 calculated columns to any data cubes or tables. I CAN see them when I edit the dataset to create new calculated columns or filters.

Does BIRT 2.5 have a maximum number of fields that can be displayed in a dataset? If not, any ideas about why I may be seeing this problem?

I would limit the fields that get imported in the joint dataset so that I wasn't bringing in all 81, but there doesn't seem to be a way to do this, either.

Thanks in advance for the help.

I just checked this report in BIRT 2.2.2 in Ubuntu and I can see all of the fields again. Not sure if this is an issue with migrating to 2.5, or if it is an actual bug in 2.5.
