>Here's a diddy I wrote that some VFP developers who use a lot of images in their app might find helpful. This checks percent of total physical memory in use and does a CLEAR RESOURCES if your passed-in percentage is exceeded. Because of the extensive caching that VFP does with images, it helps your VFP app be a better neighbor.

Mark, thanks for sharing that! I've got a windows service which processes images and prints them to PDF reports, it does use alot of system resources and this should be a great help.
