Read text error

G'day folks,

I'm having a problem with a script which reads a text file before processing
it and inserting into a db.

The error I'm getting on the read is:

"Could not run the script because the text would be longer than the maximum
possible length"

A try block generates a -20013 error which I've been unable to find any
reference to

The text I'm reading is 384k. Weird thing is that a few days ago it was
working fine with files of a similar length.

2 questions - is there a known limit of the size of a file which can be
read? and secondly, does anyone have any suggestions as to why it's being
inconsistent.

Cheers

kim
