Default building blocks limit

Hi
Is there a limit to the amount of building blocks you can save? I have several hundred. But I have a feeling that some of them are erased.


thanks

If there is a limit, I don't know it, but as they increase the size of the template in which they are stored, there is the potential for that template to become unmanageable.

You could save your building block contents as documents and insert the documents as required. Then you are limited only by disc storage capacity - which effectively means unlimited. See Insert a selection of documents

[moderator note]
Yacov thanked Graham for his answer and then question diverged to a macro to list building blocks. That was split to the vba forum.
