>>I don't do much VFP work anymore, but for the past few days I've been working on a VFP/SQL Server application that involves a lot of Excel automation.
>>Several times I got messages saying the computer is running low on memory (I have 16GB and tons of disk space with Win 10) and several times I had to reboot because everything was running slowly.
>>I don't have these issues when doing .NET or PHP work.

>Start Task Manager and watch how many instances of Excel you start. My rule of thumb is that for every Createobject('Excel.application') there should be a matching Release command. The same goes for variables which hold a reference to Excel or parts of it. Keep in mind that these Release commands must be in the opposite order as the instantiation /happens.
