- ;my question is this: when SAS says 'memory' under VMS, is it talking about

- I don't know exactly the theoretical answer. But I may know the solution
- if you use JCL. You may expand working memory on EXEC Card
- such as:
-
- // EXEC SAS,WORK='6000,1800',REGION=4000K
-
- If it does not work, you may try to expand your storage memory under CMS.
- If memory problem happens after you worked a while. You can simply logoff
- and logon again to get all memory coming back. It is not a SAS problem
- through. Anyway, your problem does not look like a disk quota problem.
-
- Good luck.
