It makes one believe that they are talking to themselves on a list board but I wanted to let anyone know that I found the answer in one of the Glorious HTML Documents. The limit is 64,000 records. Phil

The reason: I have 150,000 rows of data (length) which consists of 390 character/txt. The primary key (ID) starts with 1 and is incremented by 1 for every insert. So, 150,000*390 = 58.5Mb. This is what I wanted to export. When I wrote an export.rmd, I had to break the files into 5,000 records/file to be able to have data in the file. What is the standard number of bytes that file will hold? Is there a standard?
