RevG Specific

I am unable to RECREATE-FILE my LISTS file as I receive a "Variable exceeds maximum length" message in RTP51.

Can I DELETE-FILE my LISTS file and simply CREATE-FILE it again?

Or … is there a get-around for the Maximum length error in RTP51?

Thanks for your previous response — Dennis

No real reason why not - off the top of our heads we BELIEVE that LISTS file in G were account specific and creating a file would make it account specific. So backup then give it a try :)

go for it, delete the file and create a new one.

If there are items that you wish to keep then

create-file lists.temp etc

copy lists whatever to:(lists.temp

delete-file lists

rename-file lists.temp

make sure everyone is off the system 1st
