MultiFileSelect Pop-Up panel allows only 1500 filenames to be selected

[TWagner]

I am using the MultiFileSelect Popup panel to select bitmap files that shall be processed in sequential order. This dialog seems to be limited to approx. 1500 filenames which can be selected. Is there a limitation like this in number of filenames and how could I probably get around or did I do something wrong? I am usnig LabWindows CVI 7.0.

Thanks in advance

The underlying Win32 SDK function is displaying the error message when the text in the File name field of the dialog is larger than 32767 bytes (0x7fff). Apparently this is an internal limit. The API doesn't allow to extend the size of this input field.

To workaround simply select a large number of files in several steps.
