Hell all,

I've been looking for a free Basic language that handles threading for a big project I am working on. One problem I keep running into is programming languages that can't handle large programs. So I am wondering: what size programs can Small Basic run? Both in terms of MB and in terms of number of lines?

    As mentioned, VB.NET is the most powerful BASIC language.
    And You should reorganize your project into small code libraries (dlls), not to have all code in just one file (the .exe), because it is not likely that all your code will run in every session, so, only dlls that are needs will be loaded into memory and executed. If you managed your code that way, you can end up with a veery large application, but fragmented into many small files.
