The interpreter must... :) I've not seen it documented; why would one want any one line longer than some reasonably short value w/ a few continuations? Oh, I suppose one could try to load a large set of complex data programmatically... --

If the OP is exceeding the maximum line length, their lines are too long, and need massive re-writing. If one is even remotely worried about the maximum line length, then they should seriously consider changing their programming style. > Oh, I suppose one could try to load a large set of complex data > programmatically... Shiver... Yet another thing to avoid, but I see it done over and over again. John
