Actually, I assumed the maximum variable length to be 65534 bytes (though I've never gone beyond about 8k personally - after all you gotta leave some space for your actual program too!!!)...
Word variable minus 2 (because you can't have 65536) and it has to be an even number because the way 18F parts store stuff in Program Codespace.

I meant the Max Variable NAME length ....

Why insist on using 32 Bits when you're not even able to deal with the first 8 ones ??? ehhhhhh ...

IF there is the word "Problem" in your question ...
certainly the answer is " RTFM " or " RTFDataSheet " !!!

No, not yet Alain. I think Darrel did this a while back?
As for the C i do not feel very comfort... That += and =- get me on my nerves!
Melanie:
I usually name the variable in a way that is obvious as to what they are doing. But I don't like the CounterA, B, C, D, ... Z variables all to be used for the same task in different places. But I see no other way as the meaning of Local in PBP is not defined.
Thanks for the talking.

If you're writing large complex programs, then your chosen PIC probably has so much RAM you're never going to use it all anyway... so why not have a dedicated set of variables for every subroutine and ISR... after all, that's what C does with it's local declarations.

Yes Melanie. That is what in practice I am doing. It would be nice though, if there was a way of recycling variables!

Maybe the Aliases idea is what you are looking for?
