Data item size

By its nature, XML has no limits on data item size. COBOL does have size limitations for its data items. Many XML documents have been standardized and such standards include limitations on data items, but the COBOL program must still be written to deal with data item size constraints. When a nonnumeric data item is truncated on import, a warning status value is produced by XML Extensions.
