Some of my products have longer names. Please show me how to make it fit. Thanks for your help.

You will need to go to your database via myphpadmin and change the table character length from what i think its set at 64. I changed mine to 255.

Note that you'll want to do this in the admin side in orders so it'll be the same if you care for that.

Good point... You need to make sure that ALL fields in the DB that use the Product Name, must have identical VARCHAR lengths.
