Insufficient memory...

Smart,
Unless you are running the app on a Terminal Server/Citrix, it's unlikely
that your server configuration has anything to do with this message. The
more important question is what is the typical configuration of the
workstations using this app? (OS, RAM, disk space, network connection, other
apps running, etc.) Does this happen at startup? If not, is there some
consistent location in the app that causes it? Also, what Service Pack of
VFP 6.0 are you running?

Check out the following URL for Service Pack 5:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/downloads/updates/sp/vs6/sp5/sp5_dwnld.asp

If use issue a ? VERSION(4) at the Commond Window, it will give
you not only the version of VFP, but the build. I laughed when
I check one here because it isn't the latest build on the PC I
checked. SP4 was/is build 8862. So SP5 should be > 8862. :)

The easiest way to see the Service Pack value is to get the menu
and choose Help...About Microsoft Visual FoxPro. The first line
in the dialog box should show the SP version you are looking for.

Thank for your help on all this, guys.

Just thought I would let you know that adding the service pack onto VFP7
solved the memory problem and the processing sailed through first time!

Thanks again.
