Problem

Symptoms: A customer was getting the error message "Static Buffer Full" when trying to run a merge. Solutions: The following are possible solutions to this error message: 1. One customer's primary file consisted of parallel columns that had not been turned off with a [Col Off] code. Once the code was placed into the primary file, the documents merged without the error. 2. Another customer had only 140,944 bytes available on disk. The merge ran correctly after removing some files to free additional disk space. 3. Another customer had the following code in the file: {Field}^D~. By removing the {Field} command and the tilde, and leaving the ^D merge date command, the merge worked correctly. 4. For another customer, the primary file contained a field code that was lacking a number, for example, {FIELD}~ instead of {FIELD}1~. When a number was inserted in the field code, the document merged just fine. 5. The merge file included an {IF NOT BLANK} statement, but did not include a command to tell WordPerfect which field to test ({IF NOT BLANK}~steps {END IF}). Entering a field name eliminated the error. 6. The end of the file contained the codes {NEXT RECORD}{NEST PRIMARY}~. The intent was to avoid a page break during the merge. Replacing these codes with {PAGE OFF} solved the problem. 7. This error message was usually occurring because of a missing tilde in the merge language. You may want to let the customer know they shouldn't get the error message, but if there is a missing tilde, the merge will still not function correctly. This problem has been corrected in the 01/19/90 release of WP. WP now has a mechanism to catch runaway merge files usually caused by a missing tilde (~).
