I would guess at that being site specific as the parameters of your session will vary from site to site.

How about using a binary search to figure it out.

You know the size you just tried failed - so try half of that. If it fails, then half again. If it succeeds, then split the diff between this size and the prev (larger) that failed.

Repeat prev paragraph until you've got the answer.

Then remember to report back. (Still could be installation-specific, of course.)

Try logging on with a larger region size.

As Pedro alluded to, I suspect the clipboard size is related to your TSO region size more than anything else.

IIRC
the latest ISPF clipboard uses a data space,
so the amount of data that can be stored should be computed differently

From another place. Size is set via the "ISPF Configuration Utility", usually by your systems programmer. icon_lol.gif
