Is there a limit to the size a free form report can be? Since this is done in the heading, what is (if any) the size limit to the heading in WebFocus?

Thanks,
Kris

I have only ran into one problem doing this. When outputting to PDF you will get an extra line on SUBHEADings even when you remove the verb request. This is because FOCUS creating space of the verb object. There are a lot of work arounds for this problem.

This problem does not occur with the output of EXL2K and HTML.

Here is code that will create the problem I'm talking about.

TABLE FILE CAR
BY
COUNTRY NOPRINT
BY
RETAIL_COST NOPRINT

ON COUNTRY SUBHEAD
"COUNTRY
ON RETAIL_COST SUBHEAD
"CAR ON TABLE NOTOTAL
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT PDF
-*ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT EXL2K
END[/code]

According to the documentation the limit for headings footings etc. is 32K.
Which equates to 409 80 character lines.
