[GRASS-user] after performing join all character fields are trunctated to 1

[Jennifer Boehnert]

Thank you Micha for the quick response.  When I perform this join 
through the GUI on Windows I get the following error

ERROR: value too long for type character (1)

and all my added fields which are of data type character have a length 
of 1 instead of the original 255.  Any ideas what is going on?  I am 
using postgreSQL 9.1 and GRASS 6.4.2 on Windows.
Thanks Jennifer
