Hi,

64KB is not 64000. If you use 65536 as your row size, Teradata doesn't support that. There is a maximum limit for the row size, which is a little less than 64K. I think I have to look into the manual for the exact size for a max sized row.

     database db1;

     create table t1(c char(65535));

      *** Failure 3798 A column or character expression is larger
                     than the max size.
