Call me stupid, but I have hit a brick wall (I think). Is there a restriction on the size of a program you can code in PB? Or a restriction on the amount of lines/characters? My prog is getting ever longer, and I just found out by copying a paragraph from one part of my prog to another part of the prog, it only copied part of it and I could not extend it any further. At the moment, my prog is 8692 lines long, with 108260 characters (186931 characters including spaces). I am using PB 2.82. Any ideas? Or am I completely blind and have missed something obvious (again

Have you tested this with v2.90 also? It may have been fixed already?

There is still a size limit in v2.90.
I tested it, and its 210 KB (215.432 bytes)
here on Win2k.
You cant enter more letters.

Try to load an ASCII-file with 1 MB.

IÂ´ll send Fred my test-example (not PB-code),
so he should see it.

Mhhhh strange... I havent tested it yet... Have you tried to split up your source in some
different parts and use the parts as include...?? Maybe this would work for the first time until fred fixed this point...!?
