Thanks, I did what you said and added the line HLOnUpToSize=1000MB
and it seems to have worked. The actual filesize was 467KB. But I wonder now if I have done something bad. I meant to put 1000KB or 1MB, but fat-fingered the entry, and now I can't paste into the direct edit window, the way I did it to begin with. And putting HLOnUpToSize in the search window does nothing, simply jumps back to the previous dialog. I tried manually putting it back down, to 100KB, but nothing changes, it still opens the file properly highlighted and I can't paste, or even backsace in the text window of the direct edit dialog. It seems to work, but do you think I may have munched something and should re-install PsPad? -- <http://forum.pspad.com/read.php?2,51727,51729> PSPad freeware editor http://www.pspad.com
