>hey everyone,
>here is my problem. i have a program that runs procedures and inserts into a table some values. the program has always run flawlessly until now. my file that i am trying to insert into a table has something like 2800 entries to it. the error i now get when my program is run is, "allowed DO nesting level exceeded." does anyone know why this problem is occuring or even seen this error before? any help would be appreciated. thanks.

The help file says this... "The DO command limits nesting to 128 levels." You can't DO a program and from within that program, DO another, etc more than 128 times. In FP DOS it was limited I think to 5... you may want to evaluate your program and come up with another method of accomplishing your goal.
