Microsoft Visual FoxPro 9 SP2 Help file, VFPX Edition v1.06 states PARAMETERS ParameterList Specifies one or more variable or array names to assign data to. Use commas to separate multiple parameters in ParameterList. Generally, you can pass a maximum of 26 parameters; however, in some circumstances, you can pass 27 parameters.

It was a *standalone* program. The idea was to invoke it easily, such as in one line. It took only one parameter. I just wanted to detect if too many parameters were passed to it. As far as I can see, VFP does not allow this sort of checking in a general way. The number of parameters is limited, but it seems it is way more than 26. On my system, it is 152. Yes, each parameter got its correct value.
