Has OI32 increased in any way the buffer size limit for the System Editor?
I'm using Windows 98 SE and having problems to edit (and expand) a source code of some 51,000 bytes.
Should I necessarily split the code?

Eduardo,
Unfortunately that's not an OI32-specific limitation - it's a Windows Edit control limitation in that OS. You need to switch OS (an NT based OS would be better) or write your own editor using an edit-type control that can handle more data :)

Just to add to my partner's message, I would think it would be a good idea to split the program. I think once a program starts hitting the 40K mark, it begins to become unwieldy. By splitting into external function calls, you begin to look at the program in a different form, as you decide what functions can be combined and what can be optimised. You also start to see where duplication in other functions occur and you can begin to build a library.
Although Basic+ doesn't use them internally, you start to think of your routines in terms of a DLL libray.
