Hi!
Actually, it is not limited, but keep in mind that a single line finished by ';' should not reach 256 characters. With UNION we managed to make quite huge SQL statements that are far longer than 8,192 characters. Anyway, certain parts of a single SQL statamenet also have limitations. For example, group by fields number, sorting fields number, the number of items in the 'IN ()' list etc. Give more specifics.

The professional level of programmer could be determined by level of stupidity of his/her bugs
It is not appropriate to say that question is "foolish". There could be only foolish answers. Everybody passed period of time when knows nothing about something.
