By default, Cobra sets the width of all key and result field widths to 30. You can, however, use the Configure Fields Wizard to override these defaults and save your changes to the Fields.dbf file. When you point to Configure on the System menu and then click Fields on the submenu, Cobra starts the Configure Fields Wizard.
At any time, you can use the Update Table Structures command to have Cobra check its tables against the definitions stored in the Fields.dbf file and, if they are different, alter the structures to match. To access the Update Table Structures command, follow these steps:
1. On the System menu, point to Configure.
2. On the Configure submenu, click Update Table Structures.
Field size can be increased
