I think we can stick this on the back-burner for a while.  I also think you 
have hit the right clue, it does appear to be when a (local) component is 
translatable and it is loaded either by the IDE or the executable when running 
it outside the IDE.  I did not include the full error message including the 
back trace that is displayed in the message box (or the backtrace in the 
message area inside the IDE) as it appeared to me to be totally random, e.g. it 
would indicate different lines in different classes inside the IDE code 
depending on "how I set my tongue"* when I tried to load the said project. (* 
hope that is translatable?)

One strange thing was, let's say it occurred for project xxx, when I loaded it 
in the IDE, the IDE would abend after displaying the popup message. But, if I 
ran the IDE inside the IDE and loaded xxx in there, it didn't fail nor did it 
show the error.

Anyway, I have moved /tmp to a less space constrained partition and that seems 
to have solved my problem.

My original query was : What does the "File too large" error message mean? I 
guess now it is "Attempt to load (some) file (somewhere) has failed due to 
insufficient free disk space (or something)" . I went off on the wrong track 
looking for an oversized file somewhere in a component, wondering what is "too 
large" .  Its pretty ambiguous, like I thought I may have used a huge image 
file for a Picture property on a control or something, or that maybe there was 
some data file constraint inside the compiler for files included within the 
archive.....

Never mind.

bruce
