Answer 1

A TMemo is a wrapper for a native multi line edit control and is subject to the limitations it has. From INFO: Size Limits for a Multiline Edit Control:

A multiline edit control is also subject to the following limitations:

• The maximum number of characters in a single line is 1024.
• The maximum width of a line is 30,000 pixels.
• The maximum number of lines is approximately 16,350.
