VFP 9, SP1: Is there a max number of parameters that can be passed to a
VFP app?

I was under the impression that the max number of parms we could pass
was limited to 26, but in doing some testing, I was able to create a
main VFP executable with 720 parameters. Was the max number of parms
changed in a recent version of VFP?

Motivation: I have a VFP utility that accepts files dragged on to its
shortcut. Prior to asking this question I had been limiting the max
files (command line parms) that my utility could handle to 26. It sounds
like my real limitation is the max length of a command line vs. the
number of parms my app can accept? Does that sound reasonable?

For those interested in the max length of a command line, see the
following:
