>From the Manual, for ItemBufferSize:

-------------
"Specifies the size, in bytes, of the largest column value that can be
retrieved from a data source. You need to increase this value only if you
need to retrieve large values. The default value is 65535 (64K)."
-------------

This "ItemBufferSize" limitation is specifically about how much data can be
retrieved from a single column (cell) from a datasource lookup.

If this is how you are supplying the string value for your variable, then
this is the setting. 

But...if you are supplying the string value from some other process, then
the variable store size is not limited by, or associated with, this setting.
So, if there is a limit, then it is controlled by something else.

Hope this helps. Cheers.....
