Hi Harold,

We bring in up to 4 megs of XML for UI controls (e.g. grids) and up to 16 megs for reports. Actually, 16 megs is the limit for a memory variable.

Trick is:

[1] Set PreserveWhiteSpace = .T. when executing the XMLAdapter LoadXML and ToXML methods.
[2] Set FormattedOutput = .F. when executing the XMLAdapter ToXML method.
[3] Make sure the client box has at least one gig of memory.

Also, you may want memo fields wrapped in CDATA to circumvent parsing errors for invalid XML characters (e.g. &,<,> etc)
