- I am using Turbo Pascal 6.0 with Turbo Vision. I want to set up
- a dialog box field to input a very long string of characters
- (i.e. about 5000). I know that strings are limited to 256 characters,
- and the turbo vision field is limited too. Is there some way
- around this, or will I have to input the information in several
- fields and then append it all together into one array at the end?
- Any suggestions would be helpful. Please email to:
