RE: Item descriptions

Jack,
Can I create item comments that stay with the item forever? And how do I
get to them (file name)?  We are currently using extended descriptions
in purchasing and it is becoming an issue as we change finished goods to
purchased items.  We need to be able to send the information from a file
format to our web designer to for publishing. 
Thanks

Would item comments, "include on all documents" work for you ??

        Hello group,
        I was wondering if anyone else had issues with the limitations
of the
        30character item description field, and if so how did you
resolve them?
        We would like to have about 100 characters and have those print
on all
        documentation (acknowledgements, packing list, invoice, etc.) as
well.
        Is that a custom programming issue or has anyone found a work
around?
        Thanks for any ideas.
