Hi,

In my job I want to write a field of char(3600) in seq file.But the field is getting truncated after 1000.
The input is a seq file ftp ed from mainframe.
What is the max length of char we can assign.
Please help.

Thanks

The maximum length is certainly much higher than either 1000 or 3600. If you look at your source file in an editor, are you certain that there are more than 1000 characters in the column that is being truncated?
