- Hi netters \-),
-
- We have a program that runs on a client's machine many times a day.
- It's an input screen that logs incomming customer replies.
- And usually after the user enters 50 records, the program bombs out
- with the -4518 error which is the "the 4GL program cannot allocate
- any more space for temporary string storage.
-
- My question is how can we identify what things are being stacked on
- the temporary string. What are the things I need to watch for besides:
- 1. returning char values from a function.
- 2. the using, spaces, and ascii functions.
- 3. some forms of the case statement
- 4. the upshift and downshift functions.
-
- Or can I somehow clear the temporary string before the program is
- run every time.
-
- I know this question might have been posted to the Net a while ago,
- but I appreciate any help you can offer so I can get this problem solved
- once and for all (and get some sleep).
-
- Thanks in advance.
-
- Anna
