Communications - Data Source Setup - Variables Length

[komoore]

Currently in AWD 20.3 the max length of a manually created variable is limited to 75 characters.  Client has need where they enter up to a 750 character variable text that they need to be included in letter.

Within Communications - Data Source Setup, created variable with field type of "textarea" but length cannot be set beyond 75 characters.  Has this been addressed in later release? On horizon? 

If not then this is desired so larger text variables could be passed into Word during letter generation.

Found that you can actually send the text variable through to letter despite it appearing that it is limited  (thanks Kade Lejuene) but when setting up a variable as textarea it looks like you are limited to 75.  Maybe update to eliminate this confusion (e.g., clear text length if this is not used on a textarea type variable; allow for greater maximum length to be entered).
