The screen is too large - Too Many ACCESS Statements

[Rohde, Dirk]

We have hit this error in Axiant with what is our largest screen in
terms of code. Cognos was not able to provide us with anything specific
that is required to resolve this issue other than telling us that we
need to reduce the amount of code. Every time we encounter this error,
we try to track down and remove any unused code, try to rewrite what we
can so that it is smaller, or move code to either another screen or the
database.

Subject: The screen is too large - Too Many ACCESS Statements

I hit an interesting error today. I received a single Qdesign error that
said "The screen is too large".

I received this because I was trying to allow for all of the possible
combinations for 6 field entries during the FIND processing. I like
flexibility. Of course I used ACCESS statements on my file, which is
actually a cursor. Excluding the last field reduced the ACCESS count and
allowed the screen to compile without an error. That reduced the
generated PATH count down to 16 from 25.

Has anyone hit this problem before and can anything be done about it.

P.S. This isn't critical. The screen will be more than fine for the user
base.
