Hi Peter

iro sample code. I have a dll which I am calling to decompress some char type data. Each time the dll function is called the VFP memory goes up a little - perhaps 5kb or so. This continues throughout the day and slowly the VFP memory usage as reported by taskman goes up.

However, if I minimize the vfp app then the memory usage drops right back down and the *available physical memory* as reported by taskman shows a corresponding increase. This fact implies to me that it cannot be a "plain" memory leak in the dll since then the memory would be really gone and could not be simply returned to the OS by doing a minimize on the vfp app itself - or could it? I am not a expert on this at all.

Anyway, my collegue is sure the dll is memory ok but he is checking again. Is there a way to unload a dll in VFP i.e. the opposite of a DECLARE?
