76.0. "ERROR MSG FOC337" by HYEND::STRUDEAU () Thu Jun 16 1988 14:35

    I was wondering if anyone has experienced the following error message:
    
    (FOC337) SEGMENT POINTER AREA LIMIT EXCEEDED:
         An important internal table has a problem.  Notify your FOCUS
         representative.
    
    It sounds pretty serious!  Can anyone shed any light on why this
    is happening and what one might do to correct it?  The FEX that
    is causing it worked fine last week.
    
    The problem occurs on a DEFINE FILE statement.  The FILE that is
    being DEFINEd was previously JOINed.  For an example:
    
    JOIN field IN file1 to field IN file2
    
    DEFINE FILE file1
    .
    .
    .
    END
    
    
    Thanks for any suggestions.  I have a call into the helpline with
    IBI.

	FIRST, make sure you have a good BACKUP. Then, rebuilding both focus files is worth a try. If that doesn't help, move on to VMS fixes for files (ANALYSE, or restoring a backup copy from before the error). If all of the above doesn't help, keep plugging at IBI. -John
