>Be carefull with strtofile and filetostr UDF's for VFP5 you found because they may be limited to file size of 64K.
I've been thinking about this and pondering some other code which uses strtofile. In this I work through a table and create html which I output then pop a browser. How do I test that my string doesn't exceed 64K.

Is it enough to simply check that len($str) < 64000?

I add to my string through a method so it's simple enough to test the string each time I try to add to it.

thanks in advance.
