Shannon, my total guess is ILE %SUBST must be limited by character or graphic field length:
char 16,773,104
graphic 8,386,552

btw, why the tradition of omitting the , in large numbers in manuals, dspfd, etc

Hi,



For some reason I am not having any luck today finding the answer to this:
What is the maximum length the %SUBST accepts?



And does the Free-Form version BIF for %SUBST have the same limitations on length as the non-Free Form version?





Thanks!
