: : Hi Mark: I have been testing the expanded limits (2000 stocks) open in a port and have been having computer freeze ups well below this 2000 limit. I loaded about 1400 stocks but after updating prices for the new day the system is unable to save the data on most of the stocks ( It gives a Warning box with Ok or Cancel buttons for the investment) and then freezes up the system. Some times I can ContAltDel out to Task Manager and NT returns control back to FM for a new Warning box on the next investment it cant save. I have 196mb of ram and large page memory file but I didnt crash the way I would If I ran out of ram memory. Does the size of the .dat files open figure into the practical limits for FM7.0? The .dat files all have about 10+ years of price data.

: : Hope you able to dupicate the problem with this info. Thanks|FC

: Hi Fred,

: What does the warning box say in the text? Maybe that provides some clue...
: Yes, the size of the investment files will affect memory usage, but this
: really shouldn't be a problem, especially at such a low number of investments
: (1400).

: Thanks,
: Mark
