The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
I think if you were using a PC or IFS based file for your source you might get the unlimited line length.

Unlimited?
I'm on Version 9.6.0.4 of Rdi, and **free only lets me go out to 100 characters. Does this extend it in later versions?

I have heard that if /free and /end-free are used, your code can go
past
column 80
Otherwise, using freeform without /free /end-free - you can ONLY use
up
to column 80
OR the other way around
Can anyone confirm or deny this?
Deny :-)
/free and /end-free are no longer meaningful.
You might be thinking of **FREE. If you code **FREE starting in column 1 of the first line of your source, your code can start in column 1 and there is no limit on the length of the line.
