Hi Fred,

Me again!

Here is the reply from Christof Lange on Compuserve to a simailar question.

>>I get an error in VFP-SP3, but it works fine in VFP without SP3 installed.
Further investigation reveals that SP3 seems to impose a limit of 8192
Anyone else noticed this?<<

They fixed the C5 GPF problem with FGETS() when using a value larger than
256. In order to fix that problem they had to reduce the maximum number of
bytes to 8KB.

>Before SP3, you could have FGETS(fh,65000) with no problem, but now it crashes with anything larger than 8192. The reason I ask is because the SCCTEXT.PRG used by SourceSafe has the 65000 # and crashes (if you've modified it to be able to create .VCX's from .VCA files).
