How can I know how many combinational nodes has an especific FPGA?

Hi

I am using a EP2C35F672C6 Cyclone II and I get this error message

Error (170011): Design contains 35848 blocks of type combinational node. However, device contains only 33216.

I would like to know how many blocks of type combinational node could a FPGA have or what it depends on the use of them, so I could fix my code or buy a new FPGA.

Thanks.

    Combinational node spells "LE" in the device manual. You'll find the numbers in the device overview. "C35" means about 35k logic elements, but the exact number is a bit smaller.

    I've found it yesterday a few hours later after posting, but thanks, it is always good to have another confirmation.

    Thanks
