For CP QUERY commands, CMS Pipelines has the strategy to extend the buffer automagically when the response does not fit, and repeat the query until it worked. That mechanism is disabled when you specify a buffer size yourself. The lines don't really get longer, but you could end up with more spool files than when you issued the first query. You might want to connect the secondary output of the stage to see whether the response is incomplete. With the Q FILES in your code, a class D user would be on the very safe side... :-) Rob PS The automatic extending of the buffer only works for QUERY commands. I wasted a long evening when part of the output of a DISPLAY was disappearing...
