SIZE

 The SIZE function returns an integer value  that  indicates  the
 possible  or  actual  number  of  bytes that are allocated for a
 specified data type or variable.


 Syntax:

    SIZE( x[[,t1,...,tn]] )


 The parameter 'x' can be a type identifier or  a  variable.   If
 'x'  is  a  type  identifier, then SIZE returns an integer value
 which indicates the number of bytes that would be allocated  for
 a variable or record field of type 'x'.

 If 'x' is a variable, then SIZE returns an  integer  value  that
 indicates  the  number  of  bytes  that  are  allocated for that
 variable.

 In the case where the parameter 'x' is a variant record variable
 or  variant  type identifier, SIZE returns an integer value that
 indicates the number of bytes that are allocated (for a  variant
 record  variable)  or  would  be  allocated  (for a variant type
 identifier) for both the fixed portion of  the  record  and  the
 largest   variant.    In  addition  you  can  supply  additional
 parameters t1 through tn that correspond to the case  labels  of
 the  record.   The  SIZE  routine  returns an integer value that
 indicates the number of bytes that would be allocated by the NEW
 procedure for a dynamic variable of the specified variant.
