There is not real record limit (it is in the millions of records anyway).
The limit is based on the file size. With smaller records, you can fit more
into this fixed limit. So, larger records = less records into the fixed
allowed space
a97 1 gig
a2000 2 gig
So, if you take an average address for a mailing lable, you will find they
take out about 150 characters.
With 1 million of those address names, you would get a file size of about
150 megs.
