Assuming you're talking about a hash file, I'd hazard a guess that it would be only limited by: 1) File size 2) The ability of the tools to handle the file record list (such as SELECT) 2.1) I.e, memory limitations and 2.2) The count variable (assuming it is a 32bit signed int, that gives you a max 2^31 = 2147483648 records)

I'm on UV/Linux Just curious, is there a limit to the number of items you can have in a file? or just limited to overall file size? We have one file that has about 15M items at present. Not much data in each item, just a crap load of them.
