hi dw,

i don't know off hand but you could run a program that added a new line in a loop until you got an error...then you would know Smile

something like

Code:

rem list1 is your visible list
%i = 1
repeat
   list insert, list1, %i
   list seek, list1, 0
   %i = @succ(%i)
until @equal(%i, 1000000)


just wrote this off the top of my head...hope the code is ok

Serge

Thank you I have though of that already, but I remember reading on this board somewhere that later version of windows allow more then older versions.

I know how many windows xp can have but what about other os's?
Im not going to install my older os's just to check this out, so i figuree i would ask.

Thank you

Quoted for easy finding from the topic that Mark posted:

Mac wrote:
Some of that may be a Windows list limitation.
Windows lists are limited by available memory,
and in Windows 95 they're limited to 32767 items
(that's items, not bytes), no matter if you have
more free RAM or not...

However, apparently VDS hidden lists are only
limited by available memory (the ones created
with LIST CREATE). I've been able to use more
than 32767 items in those with Windows 95.

Cheers, Mac Smile
