PureBasic Forums - English

Hi all,

I haven't been around for awhile. I just updated my copy of PureBasic. Wow, I was at 3.81.

There were a few things that stopped me from using PureBasic, but the most annoying was the string limit. Has the limit been removed?

I am getting an error here:
LockColumnSize - is not a function, an array, or a linked list

I am all for a StringGrid, is this what this is? As in a Delphi type of StringGrid.
