4Gb is a magic number for some O.S and filesystem configurations - check the

2Gb is the address limit for 32 bit files - yes - and doubling the address

Being a PROCologist, this problem was very popular in the Jurrasic Pick era.

Mark,
I've used CURR (current) in the same way in many programs. I'm a
1983 vintage programmer who learned mostly from guys who had five years
seniority over me.
I've never done the untrusted READ thing, though.

Well, if you remember that pick includes "throwaway" connectives to
allow users to make their LIST and SORTs as verbose as desirable, having
a variable like THE.SALESMAN doesn't seem so strange.
I don't know about that paranoid read. My guess is that someone had a
variable not assigned error, and j

I guess it's a preference. I often load in the MVable fields into plural

REMOVE is not universally available on all MV platforms. DCOUNT is. Read my
earlier post.
I'll yield to the REMOVE for this U2 forum. But I will provide a reason for
using DCOUNT for another purpose.
I don't trust the X<5,-1>=VAL when applied to an associated set of fields.
