Hi, I think the "normal" tables could be estimated.
row by size (varchar (32) = 32) will result in a good guess BUT the problem will be that there is NO way of evaluating the size og a blob (long ascii or long byte) in a SQL Statement like select sum(datalen(MYBLOB)) from T1 regrads jph P.S. I miss this functionality since the old ADABAS Days ....... ___________________________ Dipl.-Ing. Jens-Peter C.
