Guys,
I have a system running on production and it's a simple COBOL program which is supposed to read an Input file and, after doing some calculations, generate an Output file.
This program works with smaller input files, which generate small output files correctly. I just multiply the record length by the number of records and get the total number of bytes.
The thing is, whenever my Input file cointains a large number of records, the size of the Output file is never larger than 4,294,969,056.
This happened for example whan I had 3 million records and 4 million records.
I can assure you the code is ok because it's been used for years with smaller files.
Is there any limitations on Windows NT?
thanks a lot,
Fabio
