Could there be a problem with the motherboard supporting more than 1GB?

This certainly was an issue with older MBs.

good luck


>Thanks Mike. We're talking about the same issue. If I go under 1GB, the problem disappears. That is not an option for me, though, as the performance hit of doing that is also too significant.

>>I don't think I even tried SYS(3050). The specific problem our clients were facing turned out to be related to running the app on a machine with more than 1 gig of memory. They (grudgingly) switched the offending process, which only runs once a month, to a box with 1 gig of memory. That seems to have cured it.

>>>Sys(3050) solves it every time, but at a large cost: significant performance degradation. As you may know, optimizing a system's sys(3050) usage can have a significant performance improvement. The modification to sys(3050) required to eliminate the error moves my sys(3050) well out of the optimal performance zone - resulting in what I would guestimate to be a 50% performance hit.

(We also have about 70 clients who do not receive this error in the same processes, nor do I receive it running their data). I had thought this error happened with cursors -- the kind created with CREATE CURSOR, not the kind created with SELECT .... INTO CURSOR -- so changed the troubled processes to SELECT INTO TABLE. However, they still occur. The client is running on a dual processor system, both of them 3.2 gHz, with 2 GB of memory. Could this be one of those flaky ones where VFP malfunctions because there is too *much* memory?

The FoxPro help just says it happens when memory is limited and suggests adding memory. With 2 gig of memory, I don't think that's the problem....
