>Also I don't think PHDBase will work in COM mode last time I checked.

That depends on various issues. Nobody has been able to really make that pattern. I worked with Jim on that at several occasions. He could only solve the issue if I give him a common pattern. So, it failed because of that.

It seems to be related to various factors such as RAM, PageFile, size of your EXE, what's in the results, etc. For now, for example, if I turn it into COM, it'll work. But, it's not something I can afford to rely on. I can't afford, as you know, to have this stupid message box popping up on the console which will lock the application. That has always been the big issue with PHDBase.

It's true that I am looking for something else. As, I'm sure, when VFP 8 will be released, it'll no longer work.
