How can I store a large string in visual basic 6 (in runtime?)

I want to have a standalone exe that has a large string (~1mb) of data. What is the best way to do this?
The textbox has a limit of ~65000 characters.. and you cannot simply write in the IDE
someString = 1mbworthofdata

How can you store a large string in a program without having to resort to loading the data from a file?
