SET BLOCKSIZE example

The following example uses SET BLOCKSIZE to create another table that is a copy of Clients but has a memo blocksize of 1024 bytes embedded in its structure instead of the default of 512 bytes:

use Clients
? set("blocksize") // Returns 1, each memo block = 512 bytes
set blocksize to 2
copy to Clients2
use Clients2
? set("blocksize") // Returns 2
list files like *.DBT // Note file size larger than Clients.DBT
