Microsoft Word's Maximum Page

Ever wondered how many pages you can type in a Microsoft Word pogram??? Then read on...

I was trying to dump or restore a mysql data into a database server. Unfortunately the data query file is 140MB and this xampp sql query thingy couldn't support the size. So, in an act of curiosity wanting to find out why the data is so huge, i attempted to open the sql file in Microsoft Word and left it running while i went for Friday prayers.

After i got back from prayers, i got this message from MS Word saying that my data has exceeded the Microsoft Word'c capacity. And the maximum page Microsoft Word can handle is......

32766 pages


Yup, that's the number you've been searching for. So there you go, another mystery solved. If you're planning to write your memoirs of life, make sure it doesn't exceed 32766 pages ok.

interesting fact indeed - however my humble problem with the alleged excession of pages at Microsoft Word started with just 131 pages (according word count: 4.401 lines with 31.234 words NOT PAGES!!!

MS should take care of such problems spoiling heavily the good name of MICROSOFT WORD!
I am just missing a simple expert solution for this basically minor computer problem.
