Need to shorten description field for short display...
Can someone tell me how I can shorten the description field to a set number of characters or words only for my short display. The user fills out a description field when they add a record, but it can be very long and I dont want all that length to show up on my short display, so instead I would like it to cut off and either have a "click here to view more" or just the "..." after so many characters or words. Im not sure how to go about this. Thanks! Smile
