This may be a simple question, but what's the maximum number of characters per macro line? If you are using the editor window, where you can verify, it will let you keep on typing for days (say it's a big select case statement or something) but when you exit that window, you are limited to a certain number of characters. I ran into this a while back and ended up having to split my macro from one big select case statement to a ton of other statements.
Thanks and I hope everyone has a safe and happy New Year holiday!!

Cicero,
The formula field length (last field) for macro detail lines is 1024. Ive encountered this myself so will add changes to either limit the number of characters allowed in the editor window or an alert when closing the window letting you know so you can go back and fix.
Dave.

Thanks Dave. It's very frustrating to spend all that time typing away thinking ... This will work perfectly, exit the editor and BAM ... 90% of the work is gone hehehe.
