Export Limitations
A maximum of approx 250 fields can be selected (any combination of standard and custom fields) within a single export process. (the actual maximum number of fields that can be output is 255 - but CGX adds 2 internal fields during the process which are never visible). The limit of 255 is directly related to the maximum number of fields allowed when creating a standard database recordset used internally by CGX as well as being the limit for MS Access.
When exporting to a <new> table, all text fields are defined to be 2555 characters. If the amount of data in an Outlook text field exceeds this number, CGX will dynamically redefine the field as a "memo field" with a maximum output limit of 65,000 characters and the Outlook data will be truncated to conform to this size limit.
There is also a maximum export limit of approx 2000 characters per export record which is comprised of both the number of fields and amount of data being exported. This constraint applies regardless of the output file format selected since all Outlook data is first exported to an internal MS Access workfile to which all field and record size limits apply.
