Additional comments

Hi there!
Here's the big picture: I needed a 8-digit field to store contact IDs, so I created a custom int field for contacts. First I did this without touching the settings of the field. All the contact data got imported directly to the database, no manual input.
I can see the correct values in the database, I also can see all the contacts in the list. Basically: import works.

But as soon as I try to open and manually edit a contact, the system crashes.

Same behavior for articles.

Some more details: if the int field is only 6digits (max value 999999), editing works. With every digit more it get's slower until editing crashes. If no min / max / step values are present everything works, but I only can enter a max value of "100". Imported values don't show up anyway. They sit in the database but don't show up in the backend of the contact.

Somehow I get the feeling I try to misuse the int field?
