You can adjust how much memory you need in VFP by a
sys function in VFP. Look through the help on the SYS() functions
also I dont remember if VFP is affected by MEMLIMIT in config.fpw
that FPW 2.x was.


FYI Foxtalk had a very good article on VFP and memory in Feb 1997 issue
and how VFP reacts to system memory and windows 95. This may answer your question.

Hope this helps
