[comp.windows.ms] ToolBook pages

The size of a ToolBook page can not be bigger than 64k. 
I must use big bitmapped pictures - is there some
way to get around this limit ?

Not as far as I can tell.  Asymetrix ship their DayBook with the code taken
out, presumably so that a sensible amount of info can be fitted on one page.
(I don't know how they did that, I'd be interested to know!)

The other thing to do to save space is to try and take as much code as possible
out of the page and onto the book.  But beware... the book script also
suffers from a 64K limit, so you need to spill the code over onto system
books, this slows things down a bit, and makes debugging very difficult
(you can't set a breakpoint on something in a system book).

Regards from a fellow sufferer!
