RE: Counter on query is too small

I don't see the COUNT function as being available as a result field function. Your requirements may have outdone the ability of Query/400.

There are other options available. SQL, Counting in an RPG Program, etc, etc...

I wrote a query to get an expected result on a purge process I am writing.



I am expecting to purge about 50 million records.



The result of my query was



FINAL TOTALS
COUNT *********



The counter is only 7/0 and I need 8/0.



Where can the counter length be bumped?
