Hi,

I'm making a post prosessing tool,. I have a directory with 832 files with
somewhat long file names. When selecting all the files using OpenfileDlg with
multiselect activated, the dialog returns with message that it could not find
all files (selected in the box). I suspect some kind of text buffer is not
sufficient big.

Is there an upper limit on files or characters? Can it be adjusted?

Regards Jesper, DK

Yes, 8192 characters is the size of the buffer passed to the
underlying OPENFILENAME structure used in the Open and Save As file
dialogs.  No, It cannot be adjusted.
