>This is something that happened to me a few times. I have a long time running EXE. That EXE is always in memory. However, it calls other EXE on a regular basis. After a long period of time, everything in its memory is completely lost. This applies to variable values, arrays and such. I can't tell if that has only happened in VFP 8 or not. I would like to know if others also experienced something like that.

hi Michel,

Just a shot in the dark.

If both exe's are vfp and the 2nd exe is called in the same memory space as the first (ie do ... and not via shell or CreateProcess), then would the 2nd exe have statements like CLEAR ALL or RELEASE ALL that would be executed ?
