Dear Javier,
250 characters on a line is a limit in many versions
of Fortran. If this is what you are referring to, the
solution is to simply split each record into two lines.
FOr example, the 10 fields defining one input record for ASREML
1 2 32 4.5 5.5 6.6 7.5 8.4 9.3 9.9
may appear in the data file as
1 2 32
4.5 5.5 6.6 7.5 8.4
9.3 9.9
If ASREML expects F fields, it will read as many lines
as it needs to get the F values.
If by columns you actually mean data fields, there is
no such limit. There is a limit of 400 or 500 field
definitions but the !F qualifier means that more
actual fields could be present. I therefore presume
this is not the problem.
