Les,
We are doing this and are not having any problems with it limiting the text
Characters. Have you tried to change the default settings?

Subject: [Vantage] Vantage 6.0 Personalizing and Customizing Problems
If you are planning on using the Personalizing or Customizing of screens to
place VBForm fields on main entry screens, be aware that adding a Text-Box
widget tied to a VBForm field only allows 8 characters to be entered in the
field and a Combo-Box widget for a VBForm field truncates the List Items to
6 characters. We have VBForm fields that are Text Boxes were we type in
more than 8 characters to the field and VBForm Combo-Box fields that have
List Items longer than 6 characters. With these two problems, has stopped
us from being able to Customize the entry screens to make data entry easier
for our users. This is too bad because we really saw a great benefit in
customizing the data entry screens across the company and filling stop gaps
with requiring VBForm fields to be entered before leaving the data entry
screens.
