dialog_pickfile internal buffer [message #39244]

Hi guys,
Quick question. I'm entering a large number of 512x512 tiff images
of ct scanned fish into a widget based gui I wrote for polygon
extraction of their air bladder(s). However, I have found a little
problem. My pro crashes out on this line:
filesToUse = DIALOG_PICKFILE(FILTER='*.tif', TITLE='Pick the TIF
files', /MULTIPLE_FILES)
with the message "DIALOG_PICKFILE: Dialog failure - Internal buffer of
32767 bytes exceeded."

This only happens when I try to pick more than 627 images at once. (I
know its a lot.) I have been able to make a few work-arounds, but I
was curious if anyone knew how to change the internal buffer (if at
all possible).

If anyone can help me out, I'd appreciate it.
Have fun,
dave
