Default Memory limitations with VBA

Hello,

Does anyone know the memory limitations of Excel VBA (2003 or 2007), please?

I'm working with 3D variant arrays and reach a critical limitation when I
increase dimensional requirements for a key variable beyond approx
2000x58x207. Consequently, the "out-of-memory run-time error 7" message
appears.

I have a 64-bit workstation running Windows XP 64 with 8GB RAM and 4
processors. In theory, I should be able to access most of the available
memory with this 64-bit system configuration. However, I understand that
Excel is a 32-bit application and as such was only designed to utilize less
than 2GB RAM.

I'd appreciate any advice as to a workaround solution.

Regards,

Chris Dandre.
