The limits for the number of characters that can be used to fill in summary sheet fields are the following:

Field Limit —– —–

Title, Author, Operator 40 Keywords 80 Comments 256 Creation/Revision Date 8 Version Number 10

In Word Version 5.50, Creation/Revision dates are known as Date Created and Date Saved. Their limits are 10 characters apiece, since they are given in numerical form with full year expressions. Example: September 27, 1990 = 09/27/1990. All other fields use the same lengths as Word version 5.00.
