How much virtual memory does your computer have?

Does pragma Storage_ size affect this and if so where would you place
it
in
a procedure?

No, the array index used affect the maximum size. I suggest you read:
so then
Type My_Array is array (1..Long_Long_Integer'last) of record...
is fine?


No, it means that your computer is running out of memory before GNAT does.
Tell me what computer/os you got and I tell you how large your array can
be.
Win XP SP2

On most 32 bit OS it will be 2**31 byte.
A few selected 32 bit OS it will be 2*32 byte.
On a (propper) 64 bit OS your swap file will fill your hardrive first.
