The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft FoxPro for MS-DOS, versions 2.0, 2.5, and 2.5a
If you receive the error message "System Resources Exhausted" in Microsoft
FoxPro versions 2.0 and later for MS-DOS, do the following to recover
system resources:
- Increase the number for the FILES setting in your CONFIG.SYS file.
- Increase the number for the BUFFERS setting in your CONFIG.SYS file.
- Make sure HIMEM.SYS is loaded, and try increasing the number for it
or try adding the /NUMHANDLES=<n> parameter, where <n> is 1-128. For
example:
DEVICE=C:\HIMEM.SYS /NUMHANDLES=45
The function of this option is to set the maximum number of Extended
Memory Block (EMB) handles that can be used at any given time. Specify
the amount of memory in kilobytes. The minimum value is 1, the maximum
is 128, and the default is 32. Each additional handle requires an
additional 6 bytes of resident memory.
- Make sure SHARE.EXE is loaded for peer-to-peer networks with the
following minimum parameters of /F:5120 and /L:500.
- If you are using a Novell network, increase the setting of the FILE
HANDLES line in the SHELL.CFG or NET.CFG files.
- Close any open windows and turn off borders.
