From "Paradox Programmer's Guide: PAL By Example":

Field Type             Length
A                      Width in bytes (width 1-255)
D                      4 bytes
$                      8 bytes
N                      8 bytes
S                      2 bytes

The maximum overall width of an unkeyeed table is 4000 bytes; for a keyed
table it is 1350 bytes.

Hope this helps.
