Astericks
I receive astericks for some of my data output. I thought maybe it was the field size, but I do have a large enough field to cover data output. Anythoughts how to troubleshoot this?

Thanks,

Joe

Is this a DBMS table with the Master generated by the Synonym generator? Is it a flat file or a FOCUS database?

You get asterisks when a numeric field definition isn't large enough - if the sum of a large number of values is more than the field definition, you'll get asterisks, so will you for the subtotal or grand total.

Thanks for your help. I changed the count field to I7 and it worked perfectly!
