Hello, Does someone perhaps know what the maximum length of an argument is when calling a program from the command prompt? i.e. C:\> dar_creator.exe someguy&&blah blah avenue 190&&B9512&&Somecity&&Somecountry&&1000&&15236485&&12&&200&&no&&no&&yes&&yes&&Hello&&dennisds@cheesypeas.com&&holy_shit@vatican.com&&Hi, this is a test I am trying to call a program and in this program I split this into tokens by splitting at each double ampersant&&24&&78 Is there a limit on the size? I am making a program that modifies a Word-file and then e-mails it as attachment. The parameters need to be gained from the program where you call this program. ____________ Kwakkel |

As feared there is a problem. It got longer and now it says "dar_creator.exe is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file"

yes, it now works perfectly but I forgot to dispose the attachment from the mailserver and it is now having opened file handlers left on the mailserver. I am pretty fucked.

What is wrong with Googling these things in the first place?
