AVAIL(1)

 

PURPOSE

This function returns the approximate number of elements that could be allocated given a field or group of fields.

 

PARTS

 

1 f/c/eRequired - The total internal size for the field or fields to be allocated.

 

RETURN TYPE - R

The maximum number of elements that could be allocated for the total size given.

 

COMMENTS

Basically your asking how many fields of the size stated in part 1 could be allocated from the memory available.  Due to virtual memory it will probably always be near or at the 4,294,967,295 limit of an R type field.  Depends more on the size and available room on your hard drive than on real memory.
