Has anyone seen a situation where a Report Library file is showing up in the Report List with a negative file size?

In this situation, the file is an EXL2K file, and it's loading as -1399959972 file size in Report Library. The file is usually about .5GB in size, saved as a COMT file.

Could the fact that the file size is so huge and saved as an EXL2K file be part/most of the problem?

Thanks.

It looks like a symptom of overflow of a 32 bit variable in the underlying code. My guess is there is nothing you can do about the negative number but I bet you could deduce the real filesize by adding 2GB to any negative numbers you get.
