>We have a client who is receiving the "Not enough memory for file map" error in some processes. (We also have about 70 clients who do not receive this error in the same processes, nor do I receive it running their data). I had thought this error happened with cursors -- the kind created with CREATE CURSOR, not the kind created with SELECT .... INTO CURSOR -- so changed the troubled processes to SELECT INTO TABLE. However, they still occur. The client is running on a dual processor system, both of them 3.2 gHz, with 2 GB of memory. Could this be one of those flaky ones where VFP malfunctions because there is too *much* memory?

The FoxPro help just says it happens when memory is limited and suggests adding memory. With 2 gig of memory, I don't think that's the problem....

Mike,

It shouldn't be an issue unless the user has a large number of applications open at the time. This will use up virtual memory and could cause this.

BTW, this is just a guess on my part.
