Limitations for Grid and CSV?

[Peter2]

I want to develop a Grid which reads and writes a CSV-files; the entire size will be approx.

- 500 lines / rows
- 15 columns
- most fields filled with date and strings up to 20 chars

- but 1 field shall contain some strings with totally some hundreds of chars

Are there some know limitations or some bad experience with a data volume like this?

Hi, yes, in my experiences I had to reduce the text to 255 chars.

Stop, that was for ListView content.
I backtrack my answer.

hello peter,
your requirements should not be a problem.

i myself have a file viewer dialog, inter alia, for database files.
the content (of tables) of these files is displayed in a grid.
number of rows: > 1000
number of columns: > 20
string length in cells: in some cases > 2000 (memo fields in db)

best regards
marco
