limit to value-from-field on DD ?

Andy Knipp

We are deploying 1-N fields to a DB (choosing multiple selections from a scrolling list. From the DD manual, it shows:

<column name="Vector" data-type="varchar(40)"
value-from-field="Vector List/[0-5]/Vector" is-replicant="yes"/>

meaning that up to 6 can be placed in there. Currently we are going over our 500 limit.

Is there a syntax to make this unlimited ? If I make it 5000 is there a downside ?

Tips/pointers/RTFMs appreciated
