Hi
1. If you have a PIF file for the application, you can edit it to specify the ENABLING of XMS memory.
2. If you are not running the application using extended version of Foxpro runtime, you can copy the revent Fox...X.Eso/ESL files, so that himem can be utilised.

Hope this helps :) ramani :-9

You haven't indicated where you are getting this error message. On startup, running Filer, in an application that is trying to display a listbox, etc.? There are some work arounds for some errors, and others that just can't be solved short of running on a &quot;slow&quot; system (officially < 166 MHz).

Previously, I would have recommended you to read &quot;Insufficient Memory in FoxPro for Windows on Fast Computers&quot;, at - unfortunately MS killed this article off early in 2000 (they really don't support FPW any more). If you know someone that has an older copy of the TechNet KnowledgeBase, you can look it up.

I ran into this error on faster PCs when a List box was trying to display a lot of records (600+). I don't remember where I saw the fix for this, but it basically involved slowing the system down while it collects the records by adding an extra loop in code.

Good luck.
 
FoxPro 2.6 Starts in new PCs with an Error Message&quot; An Error has occurred in your program. To keep working....&quot; with 'Ignore' and 'Close' Buttons. Why is this. How to overcome this. Please guide
 
This often occurs due to having created the code file on a machine with multiple drives (mapped network drives count). The linker then expects all the target (user's) drives to be ready. If you have a CD-ROM in this machine just put in a CD and it'll be happy <s>. Or you can get the FixDrive .PRG at (same as previous answer - thanks to Paul Lee), it'll delete the internal references to other than the C: drive.
