When trying to work with guids represented as strings I came across the following problem.

If a string field in a TVirtualDataset is defined as having a size of, say, 38, then when the string field displays a string of length 38 the last character is shown as an unprintable character.

To reproduce this open the virtual dataset demo. On line 156 the DeptDataSet field DName has a size of 14.

On line 130 change
DeptList.Add(TDept.Create(10, 'ACCOUNTING', 'NEW YORK'));
to
DeptList.Add(TDept.Create(10, 'ACCOUNTING1234', 'NEW YORK'));

so the length of the string to be displayed is now 14 characters.

Run the program. Expand the DName column and inspect the last character displayed.

Thank you for the information. We have reproduced the issue and will investigate its origin. We will inform you about the results shortly.

I have just noticed that I have probably created under the wrong category. if you want you can move it.
