The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, versions 3.0, 3.0b

SYMPTOMS

If you press and hold the PGUP or PGDN key to navigate through lists in FoxPro screens, then after a few times, you'll receive this error:

   Insufficient Memory

STATUS

Microsoft is researching this behavior and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

1. Create a new form, and place a list box on it.

2. Select the From Fields option in the list box's List Items, and select a

   field from a table such as Customer.Contact.

3. Generate, and run the form.

4. Open the Debug window, and enter SYS(1016).

5. Press and hold the PGUP or PGDN key on your keyboard to navigate up or

   down through the list.

Note the number returned by SYS(1016) in the Debug window. After a few times of scrolling all the way down and all the way back up in the list, you should see the number displayed in Debug increase because more and more memory is used by the object. At some point (this varies from one system to anther), the error occurs.
