Hi, I try to define a field type A8000. I'm getting this error "(FOC282) RESULT OF EXPRESSION IS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE FORMAT OF FIELD:" Do you know what is the limit of size for an alphanumeric or is there an other option.

DEFINE FILE CCG_LIST
COMMENTS_FOR_FEX/A4000=STRREP(4000,&EXT_COM.EVAL_COMMENTS_FOR_FEX,1,LF,4,'
',4000,'A4000');
COMMENTS_FOR_FEX2/A4000=STRREP(4000,&EXT_COM.EVAL_COMMENTS_FOR_FEX2,1,LF,4,'
',4000,'A4000');
COMMENTS_FOR_FEX/A8000= (COMMENTS_FOR_FEX||COMMENTS_FOR_FEX2);

thank you

Maximum length is 4K for both An and AnV fields in your release.

Upgrade and then you can have an AnV up to 32K

But you would have known that if you had bothered to search the forum as the same question has been raised within the last 2 weeks
