Par2: Displaying more than 64k in a Text control 2013-08-10 -- Graham Dawson You can use the DOS file driver and slice the text in the control using
prop:text eg
dosFile file,driver('DOS')
record record
line string(65565)
end
end
LoadText routine
dosFile{prop:name} = 'fullpathOfYourFile'
open(dosFile)
set(dosFile)
loop
next(dosFile)
if errorcode() then break end
if not bytes(dosFile) then break end
?Text1{prop:text} = ?Text1{prop:text} & |
dosFile.line[1 : bytes(dosFile)]
end
close(dosFile)
Obviously above needs error checking - but just tested with a 109KB CLW
source file, an ordinary TEXT control (_not_ RTF) with horizontal and
vertical scrollbars and everything loads OK.
So the text control itself doesn't have a 64KB limit.
