Hi,

Can anyone confirm or deny the following:

Host variable char < 4000 is DB type CHAR
Host variable char >= 4000 is DB type LONG

But the SAP DB Reference Manual says (VAR)CHAR is ok up to 8000
characters - this seems to conflict with the Precompiler manual (the
table naming in that document suggests that Adabas/SAP DB 6.1 limits are
being used). Which is correct?

Also, what is the recommended means of dealing with large FIXED fields?
I have code which uses an "unsigned long long" (8 bytes) for values, but
the precompiler doesn't accept this type, and the built in DECIMAL type
is only good for 15 integer places.

Any pointers would be appreciated.
