SYMPTOMS
========
After you upgrade to MS-DOS 6.0 or later, a "not enough memory" error message
may appear or your system may stop responding (hang) when you try to run an
application generated with Computer Associates' Clipper program.
WORKAROUND
==========
To correct this problem, add the NOEMS and NOVCPI switches to the EMM386.EXE
command in your CONFIG.SYS file. For example:
device=c:\dos\emm386.exe noems novcpi
The application generated with Clipper should now run on your system.
MORE INFORMATION
================
You can also work around this problem by using the RAM switch instead of the
NOEMS switch with EMM386.EXE or you can remove the DEVICE= statement for
EMM386.EXE from your CONFIG.SYS file.
EMM386.EXE is a Virtual Control Program Interface (VCPI) server. VCPI is a
program interface that allows expanded memory services (EMS) emulators and DOS
extenders to coexist within a 80386/80486 environment.
NOTE: Clipper is an XBASE compiler.
Clipper is manufactured by Computer Associates International, a vendor
independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding
this product's performance or reliability.
