Hi Bill:
Copy/Paste is limited only by your machinešs available disk space and your
available patience.
I wouldnšt go above two gigabytes unless you do it overnight :-)
Word gets very iffy above 2GB (which is the "documented" limit for the text
component of a single Word document) but I have found that it will keep on
chugging well above that on the Mac file system or on Windows XP.
Cheers
