hey group,

in a gdg in the first step can we create a record length of 100 and in the second step a record length of 200, is it possible?

Why not try it yourself and see what happens.

To be honest, it would probably take less time than posting here

Hello,

If (when you try this) there are any questions/problems, post what you tried and the question/problem and someone will be able to clarify.

Yes, you can have what you asked for, however you should try yo know
1. why would you do that?
