TMemo/TRichEdit Boxes Larger Than 64K

Hi all,

I'm writing a simple text editor, but have come across a slight problem
where the TMemo and TRichEdit components can't seem to handle text larger
than 64Kb.

Does anyone know of a way around this?

Thanks!
Jim

Set the MaxLength property of the tRichEdit to the desired maximum size.

In Windows 9x a TMemo can only handle 64Kb (or 32Kb, not really clear). A
TRichEdit can handle 2GB, but you will have to set the MaxLength to MaxInt -
2 for this.
