It's been a long (really long) time since I've used Query, but there should
be an OUTFILE, and you should be able to file EQ the OUTFILE to a file
you've built that has a limited number of records...

> Is there a way to limit the size of a file a query can produce?  We do
> not know at this time, if the query was run in batch or interactively.
> We can not limit the size by profile, due to group profiles.
> Any help is appreciated.
