Hi,

Thank for your advise. So I might had to restore to using the minimize
and restore it back to normal to temporarily solve the memory leakage
problem. In addition, I will recommend my customer to use WinNT insteads
of Win9x. Hopefully, someone will advise or come out with a solution to this
problem.

The memory usage would grow and grow and grow and eventually VFP died with an ICE. And minimizing the app did indeed reduce the memory usage. This was in VFP6 SP5 running on Win2K.
