Juan,

I don't have a paper, but I do have several database where my files are
larger the 1G.  Works fine.  There were problems in the past.  But I never
had any problems.

I'm running on 8.1.7 on Windows NT.

Hi list 
Please my customer received one email asking to resize a datafile 
and he said 
"According to the email you sent the datafile affected has a size more than
1gb, that could be causing the problem, because windows operating system has
problems managing datafiles bigger than 1GB. .... This information is not
official."

I think this is definitively wrong, but I don't have nothing official to say
 
do you have please some paper demonstrating that this seems to me ridiculous

or I'm wrong and this is true.

Thanks a lot.
