Nonsense. No matter how much lipstick they slap on the pig, this is

There is a 2 gig limit for a reason and that is no longer

Of course not. That was a VFP choice to limit file offsets to a single
32-bit int.



...which I might add that using vfp2c32.fll (on VFPX), you can get past the 2GB barrier (in terms of reading text files anyway). https://vfpx.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=VFP2C32&referringTitle=Home
