I have the following coding:

if "2" $ getfldstate(-1, "table1")
return .t.
endif

VFP 8 SP1 will crash occasionally with the error 43: There is not enough memory to complete this operation when it executes the if statement. However, if I make the coding to be like the following, it will not crash anymore.

x = getfldstate(-1, "table1")
if "2" $ getfldstate(-1, "table1")
return .t.
endif

If I change the coding from

x = getfldstate(-1, "table1")

to

x = ("2" $ getfldstate(-1, "table1")), this statement will crash with the error 43.



Thank you for any help,

Peter
