>My application running as an NT service opens - with FOPEN(cFile), analyzes - with FGETS(nHandle, 1000), and closes - with FCLOSE(nHandle), a big text file (of some 2 million rows). During analysis it performs a hard check of data consistency (many IF...ENDIF's), stores important things in a table, and closes it, then sleeps waiting for another wake-up. I noticed that during fgetting rows the RAM usage increases and is not released even after FCLOSE (in this way I loose some 500MB and more). I have to exit the program to give out all memory. Any hints or suggestions? Thanks in advance.

You might try using the filetostr() function. You might see a significant performance increase as well.
