Hi,

Can anybody tell me what is max. no. of entries(SIZE) a TABLE in Easytrieve can have? When I referring to few documents, - there will be system default and used when we are not mentioning anything. Else, we can specify Literal which will override default. What can be max. value of this Literal?

Thanks,
Sakthi

Hello,

Are you just curious or is there some reason to find the "max" ezt will allow?

If you post what you need to do (rather than looking for some limit), we may be able to offer more usable suggestions.

If you are looking for the max to detrmine if an entire file will fit into an array, there are almost certainly much better ways to meet your need.

Thanks Dick.

Actually, in our production we use lot of Easytrieve programs. In most of them we use TABLE. And due to some enhancement in functionality, we need to have more (add) entries in it. Then we have to increase the table size in program. When we compile it is throwing error - 'Table size exceeding the limit'; that is reason why we need maximum limit of table.

Please, let me know how it can found?

Thanks,
Sakthi.

Hello,

I believe there is an overall limit that is described in the documentation for your version of easytrieve.

If you are getting the "exceeded maximum" error, the way the proceess is implemented needs to be modified.

As i mentioned before, if you post the requirement, we may have suggestions.
