APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• There are several complex maps that make extensive use of
  Extended Rules code. They have noticed that once you reach
  65536 characters of Extended Rule code on a signle field it
  is not possible to add more Exended Rules code in the dialogue
  box.
  

Local fix

• The Workaround is to save the map to a *.mxl format.
  You can then open the *.mxl file with a Text Editor.
  You can find the Extended rule code and add as much logic as
  you want on the same field.
  You can Save the *.mxl file with the Text Editor. You can then
  open the *.mxl file with the Map Editor and view the Extened
  Rule code, including the additional logic that was added in the
  text editor.
  You can Compile the map to a *.txo object it compiles with no
  errors.
  You can then Check in the *.mxl and *.txo files into Sterling
  Integrator and execute them with the Translation Service.
  The translation works fine and the code added after 65 536
  characters is well executed by the Translation Service.
  
  This is only a user interface issue in the MAp Editor but has
  no impact for translation at runtime.
