memory problem in TX table

[Unregistered]

Hi.

We are using tables in a TX form (TX version 9 with all service packs). When the table reaches a certain size TX crashes with an out of memory error. We have about 400 lines in the table and a total of perhaps 15,000 characters. If we reduce the number of characters in each line then more lines can be loaded (which appears to indicate to me that it is a character size rather than table row problem?). I can't see anything in the documentation indicating that there is a character size limit to tables? Can you advise whether this would be expected and whether this is a way around it?

(We are running under Windows 2000)

Thanks

Huw

I think if you check back in the archives you will find a note indicating that there is a maximum size for a table.

We and some other people on this forum walked into the same problem. Last year we had a discussion about it with an employee from The Imaging Source. According to him this limitation is by design, but that doesn't seem to be very plausible, since the documentation states that the amount of text TX TextControl can handle is basically 'limitless'. It states nothing about the limit of data a table can handle, so it seems more like a bug to me. Nevertheless they refuse to do anything about it, even though obviously several customers walk into this problem. :mad:
I think if they stick to their opinion of this limit being by design, at least state it in the documentation. It'd save companies a lot of valuable time and money.

Kind regards,
Ruben.

I'm really worried about text limit in a cell (table), because in my case is needed long text on it, sometimes 3, 4 or 5 pages of text....


I think that the cells or tables don't have to be text limited....

please Imagingsource People, fix this as soon as posible....

Thank you...

Sorry, but this limit can currently not be changed.
Please note that this is not a bug, but an intended limit, so there will be no "fix" for it.

how can I do table cells with page letter size ?
really I have to do a different table cell for each page to avoid errors about text limit on cells, but the cells don´t have to be smallest than page letter size.... if is the last page, thats no matter.... but not others.
