If you really need to accommodate 32K days (do weather forecasts really stretch that far into the future?) I would be inclined to ignore the earlier part of the document - which doesn't seem to contain much you might need - and use path to drill down to the forecastday elements and then use %Handler to process them in a manageable group. If you need an example holler and I'll point you to one.

P.S. You may have missed it when it was announced - but you don't need all the LIkeDS of templates any more - just code the nested structures directly.

e.g.
dcl-ds response Qualified;
version char(5);
termsofservice char(55);
dcl-ds features;
feature char(50);
end-ds;
dcl-ds forecast;
dcl-ds txt_forecast;
date char(50);
dcl-ds forecastdays ....
etc. etc.

So much nicer because it maps the XML directly.

I'm working on a program that retrieve weather 'FORECAST' from WUNDERGROUND.COM

I think I have finally worked out the layout of the datastructures, but now I'm getting
RNF0376
Total length 46856810 of data item SFORECA... exceeds
16,773,104 bytes.

The XML file is really not all that big. I have a significally larger XML that I am using for another process with no issue. My weather xml file is 10343 bytes my other xml file is 10210510 bytes
I'm not really sure how to go about resolving this issue.
