Large file support is a complex situation, not something you can just turn on and off. Essentially, the problem is that all parts of the process chain have to support it. Not familiar with the tools you're using, but you might want to try doing other operations on a large file or files to see what does or doesn't work with it. Is your program invoking another application which may not have LF support? Peace. -- Karsten M.
