The maximum lenght of a string literal in VFP is 255.

>I have included a constants file(#include constants.h) in my program. One of the constants is a string with a length larger than 255 characters. Every time I call this constant in my program I get an error message : "command contains unrecongnized phrase/keyword". When I reduce the string's length to 254 characters or less I don't have any problems.
