Programmatically access maximum path, file, and sum of both length

How can I Programmatically access maximum path, file, and sum of both
lengths? I am using VB.NET 2003.

The PathTooLongException indicates that a path < 248 characters, filename <
260 characters, but not clear what the length of a path and filename should
be.

I would like to check the system-defined lengths programatically.

At least does anyone know what the maximum length of a complete file path
(path and filename) is?

Thanks,
