Question #: 14
Topic #: 1
Cloud Kicks is redefining its entire business process to convert the Manager Notes field from a long text area field. The goal is to encourage managers to be more concise in their comments and stayat 255 characters or less. There is preexisting information in the Manager Notes field that often is well beyond the character limit.
What would happen to any existing information if the app builder tries to convert a preexisting long text area field to text area?

Suggested Answer: A Vote an answer

Explanation
If the app builder tries to convert a preexisting long text area field to text area, preexisting information will truncate to the first 255 characters. This means that any information beyond 255 characters will be lost. Option B is incorrect because preexisting information will not remain if it was over 255 characters. Option C is incorrect because preexisting information will not cause an error message to pop up. Option D is incorrect because preexisting information in the field will not be completely lost, only truncated.
