C=Hello all,

C=Just a quickie. Is there a maximum size for arrays in Blitz (standard and

C=eg. Would Dim array(1000000) or Dim List array(1000000) work . I want to set

Well I`m sure it would work, though I reckon the limit would be the size of a
long type. But in an earlier thread it has been found out that if you dim an
array greater than a word the debugger gives an error, so switch it off
before(like runerrsoff code.... runerrson).

C=4 arrays in a program whose maximum size is determined by the user
C=(each of the four will be the same size) via tooltypes, but I want to know
C=what
C=level to set my error checking at.

The size of a long type I`d say.

You might try using the DLL stuff, it`s a bunch of code to make dynamic linked
lists(dynamic list array). It`s a bit of work to get into but after that it`s
easy to use.
