Thanks Jeff! I didn't know you could do that in debug!

I see that all of the foot notes are in the combined field, now I just
need to find out why they are not showing up in the XML document.

Terry,
By default, debug will only show 1024 characters.
You can specify the length that you want to see on the EV
command by using the syntax EV Field : C len or :X len for Hex.

Subject: Confused About Field Size.

Greetings List,
I am somewhat confuse, which seems to be my general state
these days, about field size definitions.

If I define a field as follow:

D FOOT_NOTES_FIELD...
D S 65535A INZ(*BLANKS)

Doesn't that mean the field will hold 65535 characters?

Here is what I am trying to do. I have a file that contains
80 records. Each record can be up to 300 characters long. I
have to put all 80 records into one continuous field.

Below is a code snippet of how the field is loaded:

DOW NOT %EOF(RFQFOOTNPF);

FOOT_NOTES_FIELD = %TRIM(FOOT_NOTES_FIELD) + %TRIM(FOTNOTE) + '|';
READE (RFQ# : QSTRAT_ITEM_NUMBER) RFQFOOTNPF;

ENDDO;

When I view FOOT_NOTES_FIELD in debug or when it is output
to a text file, it only shows 1024 characters. Why is that?

If anyone has a better idea of how to do this, I would love
to hear it.


Thanks,
