Entering Descriptions for Repository Objects

Entering Descriptions for Repository Objects

You can enter descriptions and comments for each repository object. You can enter a maximum number of characters equal to 2,000 bytes/K. K is the maximum number of bytes a character contains in the selected repository code page. For example, if the repository code page is a Japanese code page where K=2, each description and comment field lets you enter up to 1,000 characters.
