I'm in the airline game. 379 columns is the widest table that I can find in our production DB2 sub-systems - a highly denormalised table as I'm sure you can imagine. Perhaps someone like FedEx or UPS may have requirements to go real wide for their warehousing apps.
Nothing I can find in this big shop goes anywhere near the proposed limits. rayB -----Original Message----- From: D.
