VFP8 has 255 character limit of string in property sheet.
This is annoying when working with cursoradapter builder and choosen table has many fields - cursoradapter builder can not save your work. You get message "Cursorschema property must be no longer than 255 characters".
It is quite easy to move generated Cursorschema string to cursoradapter init method if you create such text scrap item in toolbox:

TEXT TO This.CursorSchema NOSHOW
<<_cliptext>>
ENDTEXT

and when you hit the 255 character limit try to:
1) copy the long Cursorschema string to clipboard
(after copying you can leave only a few more important fields in Cursorschema editbox)
2) exit Cursoradpter builder
3) drop the text scrap item to cursoradapter init method

Remember to set autoupdate properties before cutting Cursorschema field list and do not change it after cutting Cursorschema field list.
