Hello,
Is there a max size for strings in VB. I am trying to concatenate a large memo field to send to ada. It dose not work. I do not get any error message from VB.
Thanks
 
Hi,

variable-length string can contain up to approximately 2 billion (2^31) characters.


A fixed-length string can contain 1 to approximately 64K (2^16) characters.

According to MSDN...

"A variable-length string can contain up to approximately 2 billion (2^31) characters"

Hope this helps!
