Minimum RAM?

I have been running Paradox since for more than an decade, and would hate to leave it. Recently, calculations on a 90+ Mb file began showing math errors. My tech tells me it is due to insufficient RAM (I have 4 Mb)-- which causes the buffer to dump when it is overloaded. To get more RAM I need to buy a new machine, get VISTA and the rest of those problems. Is there a fix that doesn't require a new box?

First, 4*M*b of RAM or GB? If MB, I can only assume you're running DOS?

Are you getting an error, or just incorrect results?

Show your code / calculations and some sample values, what you expect and what you're getting. It could be corruption, it could be misunderstanding of what's possible, it could possibly be settings regarding the amount of resources Paradox is using...

FWIW,

Liz
