Export Limitation Problem

Featured Replies

Hi All,

I'm trying to export a database into a tab-separated text file which I will then run through a template that will do some html formatting on it, and I'm running into some problems. I have about 200 fields, and only about 100 of them are showing up in the Table view of Browse mode. Those same 100 fields seem to be the only ones being exported, as well, even though I specifically select all fields to be exported. Is there a field number limitation on exporting, or a file size limitation? I'd appreciate any help anyone can offer - and reducing the number of fields isn't really an option. Thanks,

Brian

Hello:

There are a few limits to be aware of:

File Size limit: 2GB

Field character limit: 64k (64000 characters)

Calc character limit: 256 characters (I think??)

Also, a layout is like 111 inches across. Dont know if this applies to table view also. What does it look like in a list view?

Hi-

Thanks for the help. It's not a File Size or Field Character limit issue, I'm pretty sure. The file size is coming out to about 100k, and each field contains text, between 3 characters and a few hundred words, but nowhere near 64000 characters. In list view, it looks fine, all fields showing up. Strange. Thanks again for your help.

Brian
