In my application it is truncated at exactly 8000 chars!
try this Sample
TEXT32K.ZIP
(1.55 KiB) Downloaded 96 times
TEXTBOX work up to 32 Kb
EDITBOX does open > 1 MB

... i have NOT "check" if String are truncated ... just check for LEN()

Hi Jimmy,

You are 100% right. In my application I have two forms with EDITBOX and I just changed the one that didn't need to be changed.... So all my changes and recompilations were useless. Sorry to have bothered you.....! My very stupid mistake!
