Carlos,

I've written records with TRANSFER up to 30000 bytes long and did no special coding or parameter set up to accomplish it.

Hi carlos sanchez,

There is no limitation. It looks like truncated. But it remains there. It shows only 255 characters line.

U can test this by retriving the same file onto your desktop or internal table.

open dataset p_file for input in text mode encoding default.

if sy-subrc = 0.

do.

read dataset p_file into w_file.

if sy-subrc = 0.

append w_file to it_input.

clear w_file.

else.

exit.

endif.

enddo.

endif.

close dataset p_file.

Ok, I was talking about writing data to the file, not reading, anyway, it has transfered now all the data, so i think that it hasn´t limit.

I will reward the points.

Thanks in advance
