max size command line argument

[Arbie]

Hi

I am launching an application from another and sending some info re command
line arguments, one of which is a big string. In Windows 7 this works fine,
but in XP "Access Denied" message appears. Shortening the big string
overcomes this.

I have tried to find out the maximum allowable argument size, both for XP
and Windows 7 but can't find this anywhere. Anybody know the answer

Hello,

Perhaps http://support.microsoft.com/kb/830473/en-us

Are you above 8191 under XP (and they would have still enlarge this under
Windows 7 ?)

With such a long string, having a response file or something similar could
perhaps help anyway...
