Message: [QUOTE="JLGWhiz, post: 6354257"] I finally found it. I knew it was out there somewhere. PRB: Procedure too Large Error When Compiling in VB 4.0 View products that this article applies to. Article ID : 129897 Last Review : December 9, 2003 Revision : 2.0 This article was previously published under Q129897 SYMPTOMS Some procedures that compile in Visual Basic version 3.0 generate the following compile-time error message in Visual Basic version 4.0: Procedure too large Back to the top CAUSE The maximum size of the internal code for an individual procedure in Visual Basic version 3.0 is 64K bytes. Microsoft Visual Basic version 4.0 for Windows uses Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications, which generates more generic internal code than does Microsoft Visual Basic version 3.0. This generic code allows for compatibility with a wider range of processors. This makes the internal code larger, so it can cause very large procedures to exceed the 64K limit and fail to compile. Back to the top WORKAROUND Split the large procedure into two or more smaller procedures. Back to the top STATUS This behavior is by design. [/QUOTE]
