What this means in terms of New Era is, according to someone, : (snip) Indeed, New Era "inherits" that limitation from Windows. Thus, you are limited to 64K Global variables (if you want to use globals...) However, NewEra contains data classes that provide the same array "functionality": ixVector, ixRow, ixRowArray. You can view an ixVector as an array that can grow as large as needed. ixVector has other benefits as well: fast Insert and Delete. You may argue that ixVector access may be a bit slower than a true array; however, insert/delete is virtually instant.
