What VFP and OS versions? Does it have an interface? If yes (you say that the timer is set from the form), can you tell me what's in the interface? Does it use cursors, views, SELECT-SQLs?

>We have an app that runs continuously. Every few minutes, the interval is user set on the form, we do an adir() and compare the array to a table. If the table has a row (file name, time, size etc) which references a file that has not been transfered we copy it to another directory and erase the copy in the current directory. This app allows users to upload files to a BBS system and we then capture the files for import to a database. We use the table to track which files have been imported and make sure that we only import a file once. This is a long winded explanation, but we have had the app run for several months without running out of memory or restarting. hth bob

>>>I have developed an application (exe) which requires to run all of the time on the lan network. The app runs ok for 12 to 20 hours but then start losing images within the form. Then when you try to perform a task you get an error stating "Not enough Memory to Run this Program". I have checked my code and release all memory variables but still have the same problem. Does anyone know why this is happenning ? It is a Win 95 problem? It's looks like the program eats memory until after awhile there is no more left. The pc has 32 meg RAM and 2 gig harddrive memory.
