URL Access: Limit on URL Length?

Does anyone know if there is a limit to the number of characters you can use
in a URL in application "URL Access Scripting"? Is there a way to change that
limit?

I am trying to "say" the following URL, to pick up a file:

http://USERNAME:email@hidden/typesetting/streams/cardtextfields.aspx
?ArchiveNumber=520&CardID=19667&ElementList=RDCode,ArtId,HiresEpsName,CardTit
le,CardTitleShadow,CastingCost,CardTypeNClass,CardTypeNClassShadow,ArtistCred
it,ArtistCreditShadow,LegalText,PowerToughness,PowerToughnessShadow,RulesText
&ElementDelimeter=<\\c>

But it appears that MYSERVER is only "hearing" the first part of my request:

http://USERNAME:email@hidden/typesetting/streams/cardtextfields.aspx
?ArchiveNumber=520&CardID=19667&ElementList=RDCode,ArtId,HiresEpsName,CardTit
le,CardTitleShadow,CastingCost,CardTypeNClass,CardTypeNClassShadow,Artis

When I shorten the URL to something like:

http://USERNAME:email@hidden/typesetting/streams/cardtextfields.aspx
?ArchiveNumber=520&CardID=19667&ElementList=RDCode,ArtId,HiresEpsName,CardTit
le,CardTitleShadow,CastingCost,CardTypeNClass&ElementDelimeter=<\\c>

...it works just fine. Any ideas for a work-around would be appreciated.

Thanks.
