Problem

Symptoms: A customer would like to use a data table as a data file (secondary merge file) and will need approximately 150 fields. Solutions: By default, a data table can only have 25 field names. While a customer can increase the number of columns in a table and thus increase the number of field names, the widths of the columns will decrease until the table columns are virtually unusable (because soon the column widths are so narrow that a single character can't fit into a cell). Customers should probably not use a data table for more than 25 fields.
