Dunno why that limit is there, but that's the upper bound of a 12-bit unsigned integer. It may be that something uses the high four bits of the 16-bit integer to represent something else. That technique is quite common at the hardware level, and used to be more common in software, but not so much these days. It's probably a bit of legacy code, from the days when no-one could imagine a monitor bigger than 1024 pixels, and 640K was enough for anyone ;-) - Robert [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).
