Maximum number of variables in FM?

[Rick Quatro]

Hi Diane,

I am not sure what the limit is, but I just used this little code snippet to 
create 10,000 of them in a blank document, and it seemed to work fine. 

Loop While(i <= 10000) LoopVar(i) Init(1) Incr(1)
  New VariableFormat DocObject(ActiveDoc) Name('Variable'+i);
EndLoop

How many do you need?

Hi Matt, Rick, and Everyone,

What the maximum number of user variables that can be created in FM 8?  The FM 
help says that the maximum number of characters in a variable definition is 
255, but does not specify the maximum number of variables.  

Thanks,
Diane
