From: L. Y. Weissler <Liza@ecld.#eclnet> I've been attempting to use dBASE II on a VAX (MOUSE@USC-ECL). In setting up a database, I discovered an upper limit of 431 records; I can enter more than 431, but any attempt to sort or index the database, or to edit any additional records, results in the program screaming RECORD OUT OF RANGE. Considering that dBASE II itself states that it has an upper limit of some 65,000 records with 32 fields, and I'm only using 6 fields, 431 records is quite a reduction and renders the program pretty useless as far as I'm concerned. Has anybody else had this problem, or can suggest ways of fixing it or getting around it? -------
