Change font size or increase number of characters allowed in chart of accounts name col.

presently you can only enter 32 characters in the name field, is there away of changing the font size to increase the number of characters allowed or be able to add more characters. It looks like on reports it wouldn't be a problem with longer names.

 

 Thanks

Generally, changing the font size of fields in QuickBooks and other programs won't change the field lengths.

 

There isn't a way to change any set field lengths in QuickBooks.

As previously shared by Big Red Consulting, there's no option to change the font size or the length of set fields in QuickBooks Desktop.
