Hi All,

As per my requirement, i have to add few new key fields in an existing table.

Now total number of key fields are 17, but while saving this is giving me an syntax error stating 'According to SAA standard key fields cannot be more that 16'.

I s there any other go? i can not reduce the number of key fields.

Regards,

Pankaj.

Utilites-->Database Utility and the Press the button Activate and Adjust Database.

Note:

Make sure that you total data in the table to be downloaded into ur system.

As ctivate and Adjust Database makes data to be deleted.

In a table max key fields is 16 so you can have key fields more than 16 that's why its erroring out . Best possible way combine two fields and make it in one.
