---+ New Maximum File Sizes _Release 5.3 includes increased maximum file sizes._ <em><br /></em> ---++ Overview: The internal pointers that Appx uses in the Appx I/O files are only 32 bits in length. This limits file sizes to 2**32-1 bytes, or approximately 4 Gig. A new file type has been added that uses 64 bit pointers, increasing the file size to 2**64-1 bytes, or approximately 16 exabytes (16 billion gigabytes). ---++ Usage Because of the internal differences in the file formats, you must export any existing data, then change the FMS type to '9': <img alt="bigfile.png" src="%ATTACHURL%/bigfile.png" /> Next, import your data with the 'Replace' option: <img alt="import.png" src="%ATTACHURL%/import.png" /> This will initialize your file in the new format and import the data. ---++ Comments: _Read what other users have said about this page or add your own comments._ <br />%COMMENT% -- Main.JeanNeron - 2013-10-02
