Validation Errors - Gift Notes

Hellos Tessiturians,

I am trying to enter a gift note on a contribution and keep getting the validation error.  I know there is a character limit, though am not exactly sure how many characters constitutes the limit.  I did a quick community search and can only find information in regard to some ticketing windows or validation error questions that have gone unanswered.  So, some questions ...

Do you happen to know ...

1. The character limit for contribution gift notes?

2. Does using special characters create this error as well?  If so, which special characters?

3. Does documentation exist specifically in regard to validation errors throughout the system?  I sometimes encounter this in other areas as well and would love to have a reference document handy that explains the error in detail as well as the parameters that creates this error.

(Quick Next Gen shameless request plug - no character limits or very large character limits in contribution and solicitation notes.) :-)

Thank you in advance for any light you can shed ...
