Editor widget size limit

[ChrisJRutter]

Hi all

I know this is in the documentation somewhere but I can't find it...

Does anyone know the size limitation for an editor widget set to "large".

I am copying and pasting from a large Word document and am getting a message advising I am exceeding the maximum available. No problem on the copying as I can cut down the number of characters as soon as I know what the maximum is.

Cheers in advance
Chris

Windows Editors

On Windows, editor widgets are limited to 20K of data, by default. To support more data, you must specify the LARGE option in the VIEW–AS phrase or set the LARGE attribute to TRUE. This raises the limit according to available system resources. If you try to enter more than 20K of data into a normal editor widget on Windows, or set MAX–CHARS greater than 20K, Progress displays a warning message.
