Dear All,

How much text can be saved in a document variable? Is formatting
information saved along with text, or just the character string data? I've
been trying to work with them, had some success and some not so success.

Sincerely,

Ridge (in New Joisey [Exit 145])

I think that there is a maximum of about 65K allocated for all the variables
and their names in a document.

Just character string data.

It's really designed for relatively small document-specific settings. If
you're pushing the 65K limit you are likely to have problems.
