If you take option D (dump) when received *escape message on the
concatenation command error, what is the content of v_PDFFiles and
v_Index in the dump spool file.

D v_PDFFiles S 1700 varying
D v_Index S 2 0

.............................................

If v_Index = 1;
v_PDFFiles = '''' + c_Cst + %Trim(PDFName) + '''';
Else;
v_PDFFiles = v_PDFFILES + ' ''' + c_Cst + %Trim(PDFName) + '''';
Endif;

(c_cst = constant; PDFName = field from a file)

..............................................

The idea is to populate this variable with names of PDF files residing
in IFS (names are read from PDFName field from a file) in order to use
it as input parameter for concatenation of PDF's command.

If the number of read records exceed a certain value and the v_PDFfiles
variable exceed 1024, the variable is truncated and, obviously, the
concatenation command ends in error...

Hopefully this will help.


Thank you

BTW, I declared the variable in two ways: with and without "varying"
keyword, with the same results.

This sounds like a debugger issue, or at least not a Varying issue if it
still happens when you don't specify the Varying keyword. Though
without code to see it's all guesswork.
