to click out of the first edit in order to preserve the top containers when you have greater than 10. But obviously in the long run this is something we’d want to resolve, or at least have behave in a predictable way based on reasonable limitations.)<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Hello list,<o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I'm running into an issue adding a large number of top container records to a single component in a resource record. After having added over 10 containers a series, I tried to edit a note but received the following error message upon saving:
"Top Container - Property is required but was missing." All of my top containers have Type, Indicator, and Container Profile fields filled in. I was able to replicate this is
<a href="http://test.archivesspace.org">test.archivesspace.org</a> and there seems to be a tipping point after adding around 10 container instances to a single AO. Tabling descriptive and access considerations that might suggest that's too large of a range
to describe in a single component, does anyone happen to know if there is a limit to how many containers can be associated with a single component? It appears as though accession records are not exhibiting this problem as far as I can tell.<o:p></o:p></p>
