>I have used FGETS() in past applications and been able to have it read up to 65535 bytes from an open low level file. In VFP6.0 it seem to be limited to about 8100 bytes. Is this a change or do I have some default set wrong? I have tested it several time but get the same result. If it is limited to this smaller number of bytes, is there any work arounds? Thanks for any help!

I've done some testing, and the limit seems to be 8192 bytes. You might want to use FILETOSTR or ALINES() if you're dealing with huge CR delimited lines and the parse the file using string functions; i don't know what the line length limit on ALINES is, so it might get you long lines as well.
