I am using VB4 and access database. When I open an access database on NT4, 512MB RAM, OpenDatabase API gives "Error 2004: Out of memory". If I do same thing on machine with less memory, it works fine or 512MB on Windows 98 works fine. Has any body encountered this problem ?? Microsoft has a bug related to this problem but it did not help me.
I can think of four situations where this error might occur (five if you include a real memory full problem)
1. The NT machine has an OLD version to the Jet DLL's.
2. The NT machine's hard disk is full
3. The NT machine's environment variable for the TEMP directory is set to a non-existant directory.
4. The NT user does not have rights to the TEMP directory.
If the jet DLL is version 3.50.3907.5 (service release 1 for Access 97) or
3.51.0623.4 (an update of indeterminate origin) you need to install the new dll
you can/should download the latest and greatest from microsofts website.
