Peter: The limit is set by the local peer (basically it uses the Windows equivalent of a TextArea), and on Windows I believe that the limit is 32K. There is also a pixel limit 64K on the scrollpane that you may hit. Instead of trying to shove the whole thing in there, try lazy loading the file contents into the window on demand. -Rich Peter wrote: > > Hi, > I am using JDK1.1's TextArea control.
