I'm attempting to read in some Census data with a fixed format infile
dictionary. The file has a record length of 12000. I either get an error
telling me that the record is too long, or if I define lrecl specifically a
message that 12000 isn't allowed. (The limit appears to be something like
7,999?) Anyway, I can't find any documentation on record length limits or
limits to the allowed number for lrecl in the infile statement. Any ideas?
Is there a workaround, or correction?
