James-

I will assume you are talking about the sys(3050,1,x) setting.

I think there is a way to do it semi-programatically. First, get (or make) a big, unindexed data set. Then, write a routine that can add or modify the sys(3050) line in the config.fpw file. Then loop and do a select a number of times (say 20), then write the total elapsed time and the sys setting to a table. Report to the user what the speed index was, and ask them to reboot (I don't know how to do this programmatically, but I suspect that your users might find this process somewhat entertaining as long as you give them plenty of feedback as to the speed improvements they are creating by sitting there and rebooting repeatedly for 10 minutes!)

Then, or course, you could createobject("Application.Outlook") and have FoxPro e-mail you the table so you can print summary statistics for your 600 sites .... ;-)

>Does anyone have examples of how to optimize memory in VFP 5 applications (EXE) that are distributed to several sites. I have a approximately 600 sites, all with various PC's, memory configurations, single user, multi-user, etc. Is there a way to maximize my apps performance with regards to memory when the PC it will be installed on is an unknown.
