Re: [amibroker] Re: Is 500,000 the maximum number of bars allowable in a database?

Exactly. It simply works - no hard coded limit, 
the only limit is your hardware (the memory you have on your system).

With 64 bit version the limit is 1024 Gigabytes of RAM (Windows x64 limitation).

The default 500000 is to protect AB from the beginners trying to enter some absurd numbers
in File->Database Settings. But as it was pointed out earlier - there is no hard coded limit in AB.
