Title: Bank Genie Review
Post by: mikec on October 09, 2025, 02:21:36 PM

I now have 30,886 transactions on Bank Genie, a testament to the robustness of your product. The software is used every day of the week since I bought the product in 2015.

I am amazed Mike. Ive been using Bank Genie (http://www.bankgenie.net) long before I released it to the public and I have 31667 records in my database.
You must have imported a large number of transactions from your previous Personal Finance Software when you switched to Bank Genie.

Heres some stats about the software I use for development:
Maximum # of records per table file.
 1 billion
 
Maximum size of a table file.
 2 gigabytes
 
Maximum size of an FPT file.
 2 gigabytes
 
Maximum # of characters per record.
 65,500
 
Maximum # of fields per record1.
 255
 
Maximum # of tables open at one time2.
 65,535
 
The table with Bank Genie transactions is called TRANS.dbf
I dont think anyone will exceed its capability.
Our 30,000 or so records is a drop in the ocean compared to the max number of 1 billion   :D
