    What is the maximum length for values in the two columns of path_convert

    • Article Type: General
    • Product: Aleph
    • Product Version: 18.01

    Description:
    I am trying to redirect to another libary using path_convert and many of the entries I need to add are much longer than the 32 character maximum imposed by the header. What can I do about this? I see examples in the distributed versioins of path_convert in the USMxx libraries that are longer than 32 characters. Are these strings going to be truncated at 32 characters?

    Resolution:
    The two strings on each line of path_convert are not limited to 32 characters. Then can be as long as necessary, as long as at least one space separates the two strings
