SYMPTOMS
========

When you are executing a program, the following error message is returned:

  Too Many Memory Variables

CAUSE
=====

The default setting of memory variables has been exceeded. This default is 1024
for Visual FoxPro 3.0 for Windows, and 256 for all previous versions of FoxPro.

RESOLUTION
==========

To work around this problem, add MVCOUNT = <Expr> to the CONFIG.FPW file
for FoxPro for Windows, the CONFIG.FP file for FoxPro for MS-DOS, or the
CONFIG.FX file for FoxBASE+ for MS-DOS and the Macintosh. The maximum setting
for MVCOUNT for 16-bit mode is 3600 (FoxPro for MS-DOS only) and the maximum for
32-bit mode is 65000.
