Hi,

I'm getting a "Line is too long" error when changing a view definition. I think it's related to the CAST, since when i remove it, I don't get the error.

In order words, when defining the amount field to be:

CAST(IIF(ISNULL(cla_pk).OR..NOT.mis_initialorls,mis_amount,IIF(cla_lumpsumamt=0,cla_initialamt,cla_lumpsumamt)+cla_initialorlsamtadjustment) AS N(12,2)) AS amount, ;

I get the error.

But, also the following works:

CAST(IIF(ISNULL(cla_pk),mis_amount,IIF(cla_lumpsumamt=0,cla_initialamt,cla_lumpsumamt)+cla_initialorlsamtadjustment) AS N(9,2)) AS amount,;

The entire view definition, w/no error, follows:

SELECT Crmaster.mas_ssnock AS payeessno,;
  Crmaster.mas_last AS payeelast, Crmaster.mas_first AS payeefirst,;
  IIF(ISNULL(cla_pk).OR..NOT.mis_initialorls,mis_amount,IIF(cla_lumpsumamt=0,cla_initialamt,cla_lumpsumamt)+cla_initialorlsamtadjustment) AS amount,;
  IIF(.NOT.ISNULL(cla_pk),Miscellaneouschecks.mis_fund,cla_fund) AS fund,;
  IIF(ISNULL(cla_pk),SPACE(10),TRANSFORM(cla_numberck,"@R 99-99-9999")) AS claim,;
  NVL(Claim.cla_bentype,SPACE(2)) AS benefittype,;
  NVL(Claim.cla_onsetdate,{}) AS onsetdate,;
  CAST(IIF(ISNULL(Claim.cla_lumpsumamt),0,IIF(mis_initialorls,Claim.cla_lumpsumamt,0)) AS N(9,2)) AS lumpsumamount,;

TIA for any help! J
