Hello,
   I am undergoing training in MPE/ix on HP-3000.
   While undergoing the BUILD command, I am finding diffiulty in
   variable length recsize.
 
   I gave the following command :
 
   BUILD testing ; rec=100,10,v,ascii
 
   I received the following output on doing LISTF ,2
 
 
ACCOUNT=  TRAINING    GROUP=  ROSHAN
 
FILENAME  CODE  ------------LOGICAL RECORD-----------  ----SPACE----
                  SIZE  TYP        EOF      LIMIT R/B  SECTORS #X MX

See the recsize of testing
 
Ideally it should be 200B. and R/B should be 10.
 
Why does Testing show 2018B here.
 
I would appreciate any direct reply to me as I have set DIGEST option.
 
Thanks in advance.
