Out of memory problem

edited February 2003 in End User
Hi

I am using RB 7 Enterprise D7, D7 Professional and
IBX7.04. IB 6.0.1.6 Open Edition.

I have created an end user solution which are crashing with out of memory
errors when lost of data are involved.
I have clients whose retail databases can have 50 000 stock items easily.
Example:
I design a simple report with only a detail band and put on only 3 dbtext
components for the following fields: stockcode, descr, sizedescr .
Using a custom search page I generate sql for the report. The result of the
sql can be = 1 record or all records depending on options chosen for
the report. If I choose options that causes all records to be displayed on
report it generates about 330 pages and then crashes with an out of memory
error.
If I change sql so that only say a 100 pages is generated then this error
does not occur.

How do I solve this problem as I have clients who are complaining about this
and wants to display all data on certain reports.

TIA

Ruaan

    We test RB using Sleuth QA Suite for leaks. We are not aware of any leaks.
    Run a memory watching tool such as TP Sleuth QA or Automated QA. This will
    tell you where the leak is in your code. If you can reproduce the problem
    using a demo database, such as DBDEMOS of Northwind Traders, without your
    code and just using Report.Print then send us the example to
    support@digital-metaphors.com
