No problems that I'm aware of in using RESIZE to convert dynamic to static. Hardest part is making good guesses for modulo and type. I think the text you quoted is saying that you can't use RESIZE to change the SPLIT.LOAD, MERGE.LOAD, etc. for a dynamic file.

The following is an extract of the resize command from the UniVerse manual. The part that I am questioning is in italic and highlighted. RESIZE Use RESIZE to reorganize a file with a new file type, modulo, and separation, or to change an existing nondynamic file to a dynamic file. You cannot use RESIZE to change the parameters of a dynamic file, or to resize an SQL table to a type 1, type 19, or type 25 file. >From this I read that I cannot use the resize command to resize a dynamic file back to a hashed file. However I have tested the command on a Dynamic file and it resizes back to hashed file and I can read the file. Any comments out there?
