Hi Colin,
I am not sure if it is an absolute number... however I found at one time on
2.6x, that if my database had more than about 180 reports, then it started
doing weird things, eg not running reports, aborting prematurely etc... So
I try to keep below that, and periodically dump anything accidentally
created, or no longer in use
Regards
Brian

Subject: Re: [Dataperf] Anyway to include Record Number in a report variable
Hi Ralph & Tim,
I do use rv+1 type formulas in a number of reports quite a bit but thought
I'd check if I was overlooking
something. The item number was sitting there to be copied but then
realised
I needed to control the printing of it and wondered if recycling and
controlling it was possible - thank you both for the response.
Using 26x but copied following from Lew's old release notes with 2.6f
"2. You should be able to store 250 reports, increased from 150."
I have a vague memory of Lew saying that number of reports had increased
at
the conference but can't be sure - does anyone know how many reports are
currently allowed and more to the point for me - does anyone know if there
is a limit to the number of report variables within a report or do I not
need to be concerned about that.
Regards
Colin

Forgot to mention you'll have to use apply.format in there, and print the
RV
as text (e.g., an A2 field).
