filelength is the maximum number of registrable records in a file. It can be
set only when a new data file is created by an
OPEN statement. If you specify
filelength when opening any of existing data files (including downloaded
data files), then the
filelength will be ignored.
Specifying only filelength does not allocate memory. Whether or not a PUT
statement can write records up to the specified filelength depends on the
memory occupation state.
If
filelength is omitted, the default file size is 1000 records.
