You can submit one, but I suspect it would rank pretty low since it would be regarded as a product enhancement request (PER). Are you trying to show the before and after values when you change SN0001? If so, the only thing that I can think to do would be to write your own program to make the change and have it record something in AIM*Historian in a custom message definition. I do something similar for FoxCTS to add user information to the standard OAJ message. Not much practical help, I guess.

I doubt that they thought about changing string variables when the message format was designed 20 years ago.

It seems to truncate these at 10 characters. We update an msaccess database with aim odbc on a dailey base which takes care for long term storage and make analyses fairly simple.
