Help! Need to read a Progress "Editor" field

[dlkraft]

I'm trying to read a Progress RDMS "Editor" field that appears to have a datalength of 8 characters.

In the Progress ap my company uses, I can see whole lines of text. Yet in the text I pull from a SQL query it is truncated at 8 characters.

The lead Progress programmer emailed me this code which opens the data in Progress:


display glbltext.textz view-as editor inner-chars 78 inner-lines 1.



In the code above, the "Editor" field is glbltext.textz.

Can anyone help me with any methods to open the text and display it in the browser?

Thanks in advance!
