- There are several options:
-
- 1. Use the "/Gtn" flag to tell the compiler to put all items greater than
- "n" bytes long into FAR DATA.
-
- 2. If you have any global or static arrays, use "malloc" or "GlobalAlloc"
- instead.
-
- 3. Put any quoted strings into a STRINGTABLE resource in the program's RC
- file.
-
- 4. Make sure the stack is no larger than it has to be.
-
- These measures should help.
