QUESTION
 MRI user message file messages appear corrupted or have bad
 data, what is wrong?

ANSWER
 ***VisualAge Version 1.0:
 The MRI file has a limit of 64K.  Therefore messages above this limit
 may appear corrupted.  To get past the limit, in application
 AbtNLSSubApp, change class AbtMRIGroupHeader, method offsetSize as
 follows:

 offsetSize
  "Public - answer size of file offset used in header.

  ^offsetSize isNil
   ifTrue:[ offsetSize := 4]
   ifFalse:[ offsetSize ]

 The only change in this method is to change the number 2 to 4.

 ***VisualAge Version 2.0:
 The changes have already been made.  In the same method above,
 the offsetSize now defaults to 4 instead of having to change
 it to 2.  So, this should no longer be a problem in Version 2.0.
