RE: SYS(3050) error on Win 7, x64 (64-bit) machine

Mike,

It simply DOESN'T work on 64 bit. I got bitten with it earlier this year. In fact it totally screws up apps that use a lot of memory and makes them unstable.

I had to take it out of my builds here.

Subject: SYS(3050) error on Win 7, x64 (64-bit) machine

VFP9 SP2

Using the tip from Fox.wikis.com, I had this in my code:

SYS(3050, 1, MIN(536870912, VAL(SYS(3050, 1, 0)))) SYS(3050, 2, MIN(536870912, VAL(SYS(3050, 1, 0))))

The first line seems to run ok, but the 2nd line (for background memory) fails.

Ideas as to why? This hasn't been a problem with Vista and Windows 7 32-bit boxes. (To be fair, I don't know if this is failing on other 64-bit systems or just this one site.)

tia,

--Mike
