I am trying to add 10 fields to a table. The table is about 73MB. I am getting the error message "Insufficient memory" when I click on SAVE.
-I have tried rebuilding the table twice.
-I have tried "packing" the table.

I am using Paradox 5.0
Any thoughts?
 
troyu,

Check the amount of disk space available on the drive containing your private directory. You need to keep ~2-4 times the size of your table free for the temporary tables created by a restructure operation.

Also, make sure that the table isn't corrupted.

If you're still having problems, try deleting your secondary indexes before restructuring your table. You'll need to create them later, but it can help if you're running out of disk space

hope this helps...
