I think the answer is to use an i-type dictionary. You can use WHEN instead of WITH on multivalued columns to limit printing to just the multi values you want, but then you wouldn't get an output line for the items where there were no calls in the range. You could do 2 separate reports, one

If this were a dynamic file, you would have to create a new file adding the phrase 64BIT. I don't know if the phrase is valid for non-dynamic files. On Mon, 2 Jul 2012 10:20:13 -0500, Holt, Jake wrote: We are getting the message: Warning: Attempt to extend file GJ/INV beyond the 2 gigabyte

Hi It depends on the type of data and what you want to do with it. You can create a directory file (type 19) on UniVerse (DIR on UniData) and simply copy files into there: each file will be visible as a separate record in the database, with each line of the record being a separate field. That's

Hi Chris, The whole point of dynamic files is that you don't do RESIZE. The file will look after itself, automatically responding to variations in the volume of data. There are knobs to twiddle but in most cases they can safely be left at their defaults. A dynamic file will never perform as

Group size appears adequate (although anytime anything hashes into the group(s) with the largest record [3267b], you'll split: 3267 is 79.8% of 4096, so if you have a lot of records up in the 3K range, you may want to increase group size and decrease min modulus accordingly), but the minimum

Hi Chris: You cannot get away with not resizing dynamic files in my experience. The files do not split and merge like we are led to believe. The separator is not used on dynamic files. Your Universe file is badly sized. The math below will get you reasonably file size. Let's do the math:

Chris, I second the thought that, because of the splitting and merging of groups, it can be a waste of effort to overwork the sizing of a dynamic file. One problem with your TEST_FILE below is that the Large Record Size is spec'ed at less than 50% of the group size. Each record that is larger
