I don't believe there is any limit.

But if you want to confirm that, contact the publisher...that info is not
in 
the help file (not that I can find, anyway,

If you are an existing user of powerbasic products, write to 
sup****t@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 you are not an existing user, I think I'd try sales@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
(FWIW, I've used PB compilers since 1991)

BTW, there is an interesting construct you could use..
For a = 1 to 2
   For b = 1 to 2
    ....
       for z = 1 to 2

  Next, ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, (25 commas)
