>Hi all. I have recently been troubled with an insufficient memory error in Foxpro 2.6. I am running the app on a Novell network. The form that generates the error is a fairly busy data entry form with a list box, several combo boxes, and spinners. It generates the error inconsistly at different times in the data entry process.

I've run into a similar situation with our network application that didn't seem to have any problems except a few isolated instances. What it boiled down to in our case was a situation where the insufficient memory was actually a "virtual" memory problem. This one workstation had filled the hard disk full enough that WIN95 was not able to expand the swap file. When we cleaned up the disk and made more room, the problem went away.
