Hi
Is there a maximum length for the character string representing a level
of a factor? I have a set of several million variables, each a factor
of length 19. Each factor level is a character string which in some
cases can be many thousands of characters long. I am trying to find out
why my analysis fails - I just wanted to rule out the possibility that
the internal factor conversion has a problem parsing long strings.
Thanks
Richard
