This goes in line with something I learned after submitting a bug for BASE64
ENCODE. The formula was changed so there was one very, very long line of
code for large amounts of data. This drawing for this line suddenly stopped
after something like 37K characters. It turns out Windows has a visual limit
on what it will try and display. We hit the horizontal visual limit, and I
suspect that you may be hitting the vertical limit. While the text may not
be displayed, I do believe that the text in its entirety is present, thus
the successful Length checks that were done. As another post noted, the more
they scrolled, the slower the window got. This is probably why a limit on
what is drawn is done so the system can remain responsive.

Perhaps a List Box could be used instead, 1 row per SQL statement? Or every
10 statements depending on responsiveness?
