Question about codes in VBA

I was wondering if there is a way to increase the limit of code lines I can enter, I currently have 107 in the list, I can add more only through the code creation process, any idea on how to increase this limit or remove it altogether?

EDIT: Thank you, that cut down the amount of lines considerably, and the game if your curious is Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town

107 codes for a single game?!
Depending on the codes, you might be better off compressing several codes into a single 2-line slide code. Codebreaker slide codes are easy to make, but only work on 16bit values. AR slide codes work on 8, 16, or 32bit values, but require AR Crypt to make them.
A slide code takes a given value and places it into X number of slots, Y distance apart. You could theoretically use one slide code to replace litterally thousands of regular codes.
For example: In the Fire Emblem games, the values for the HP of each character are 48(in hex, 72 in dec) apart, and you can use up to 18 units per battle (depending on the battle). Therefore, you could give all your units inf. HP by using a slide code to place the value 63 (hex for 99) in the first slot, skip 48 slots and do it again, and repeat for a total of 18 slots, thereby combining 18 codes into 1.
