No. We restrict ourself to information that is actually in the index. >>The same occurs in a ONENAME >>dataset if +BREAK lines are missed, or if a One Name study is >>submitted as a type of RANDOM. > >How often is a +BREAK line needed to avoid an align function failure?

There is no quota to be inserted! In a ONENAME set, each change of quarter will be treated as a BREAK anyway, but what *REALLY* messes things up is; 1) If the names that you transcribe from a single quarter go across a page break and you omit the +PAGE 2) If you transcribe several names in sequence from a page into a RANDOM dataset. -- Dave Mayall
