It means that the minimem length will be 5 bytes and the maximum is the
maximum amount of characters that can be contained in a record
(aproximately 8000 bytes), where 4 bytes are most likely used to contain
the actual number of characters. n, in the above expression most likely
represents the number of characters to be stored for a particular
instantition of this field.
