Is there a limit to the # of characters in the source detail field?
Here is an example of my source: Lambton County Surrogate Court Estate File No. 1920 for the year 1955. Microfilmed by Ontario Archives Film GS1, Reel 203.
In my iPhone database the source is truncated after the word "Estate."

Here is an example of my source: Lambton County Surrogate Court Estate File No. 1920 for the year 1955. Microfilmed by Ontario Archives Film GS1, Reel 203.
In my iPhone database the source is truncated after the word "Estate."The display of sources in the list on the iPhone is truncated at around 40 characters (depending on the characters). However, you should be able to access all the information by tapping on the source in the Source list.
If the individual fields are truncated in the Source window that opens, tap the Edit button. Next, tap each of the source fields and scroll through the remaining data. (To scroll in a field on your iPhone, grab your cursor and move it to the other side of the field.)
I hope you find this helpful:-)
