I assume this is a question for Mark West or Robert Gasch, but if anyone else knows it I would appreciate some insight.
I'm trying to figure out why the ObjectUtil::addStandardFieldsToDataDefinition function creates an obj_status column that is varchar(1)? Everything else that is created is fixed width, and I have a table that could run as fixed width except for this one column that is only 1 character wide. Why not make it a char(1) so that the table can stay fixed width?
Thanks,
-Chris

This is a good and valid point and the only answer I have on this is that that's the way it's been implemented since day 1 and can be classified as an oversight on my part.
I guess this could/should be changed in a future version. Please log a ticket in Cozi for this.
Greetings/Thanks
