DBMaker: Limits and Ranges

acu90003.gif The following limits exist for the DBMaker protocol:

Maximum indexed key size 1024
Maximum number of columns per key - 16
Maximum number of columns - 252
Maximum length of a char field 3992 bytes

acu90003.gif To achieve the same sort or retrieval sequence under DBMaker as under the Vision file system, place a BINARY directive immediately before each key field that contains signed numeric data. High values and low values can cause problems in key fields.

acu90003.gif With the interface, a maximum of 57 database tables can be open at one time by a single process.

Other limits are described in Appendix B of the ACUCOBOL-GT documentation.
