Deepu, what is the format of the columns, can you post the master.

Also useing the format on the fields will not be passed on to the hold file, what are you trying to do ?

Try SET HOLDLIST = PRINTONLY. Without this command I believe WebFOCUS will place both the original and the re-formatted versions of the field in the HOLD file.

The new format after the column name e.g. FIELD/A4000 is creating a COMPUTE. This causes "FIELD" to be put in the internal matrix twice, it so consumes 8000 bytes.

You might try doing the reformatting in DEFINE.

HOLDLIST does not change the internal processing only what is written to a hold file

You need to use a DEFINE or COMPUTE.

e.g.
DEFINE FILE RPT19_123STR01
Fld/A100 = SUBSTR(4000,FIELD,1,100,100,'A100') ;
END
TABLE FILE RPT19_123STR01
PRINT
Fld ...
BY FIELD0
ON TABLE HOLD AS NEW_RPT FORMAT FOCUS
END
