Hi all,
I am using an rtf control to display some detailled information about the
progress of some program actions (in addition to the statusbar) to the user.
This worked fine in my test environment. But in the clients productive
environment there are lots of data, my actions have a lot to do and a lot to
log. So the rtf control overflows.

Does anybody know what is the maximum length of the displayable text?

Thanks
Patrick

That will depend on the control's vendor. The Microsoft control in the
System.Windows.Forms namespace states: "The amount of text that can be
entered in the RichTextBox control is limited only by available system
memory."

Are you perhaps using a 3rd party control?

No, this is the standard control of Microsoft...
