I am sorry to report that I could not make EM_EXLIMITTEXT to work for values
greater than 64 Kb.
The lines of code used to try to achieve this were:
-- somewhere in the constants section
textBox = create(RichEdit, "", MainWindow, Default, Default, 1, 1,
ES_NOHIDESEL) -- size is taken care of automatically when the program starts
-- right when the program starts and initializes variables
result = sendMessage(textBox, EM_EXLIMITTEXT, 500000, 0)
Please note that all methods (e.g. LimitText, EM_EXLIMITTEXT or
EM_SETLIMITTEXT) work wonderfully for values UP TO 64 Kb.
I am somewhat stupefied by the ready response of other Euphoria programmers
on this question. Has ANYBODY made RichEdit text boxes work with text size
>64 Kb? If so, could you please send the ACTUAL COMPLETE code?
Kind thanks to all of you for your valuable time.
