Hello All,
I have creatde a sequential file with total columns length as 1200 for a record.When I am looking into the file with 'View Data' option , getting a warning stating - 'Data that exceeds maximum length has been truncated'.
Can anybody explain me the reason for the same with solution.
Whether there is any relation to the maximun length?
Thanks

There is a maximum number of characters the GUI will display, something quite large. You probably have a row with a column thousands of characters wide.

Data getting truncated is nothing to worry about? If it is getting truncated in "view data" it will be passed on truncated. Correct me if i am wrong.DSguru2B wrote:But i dont think this is something that you need to worry about. The job will run just fine. If you have to view the records, do it from the unix level by using the head and tail options.
You're all wrong except DSGuru2B. It's the GUI that can't display the full contents of a column. The job is fine.
