NTVDM memory issue

We are currently running a Dos Fox pro appliction on all of our W2K workstations. The NTVDM.exe seems to be eating up all the Ram while the application is open. It doesn't matter how much I put in, since it uses all available memory. Is there any way to regulate the amount of Memory this process is allowed to use?

Thanks in advance,
jim
 
The best way I've found is to
add this line to the config.fp file.
MEMLIMIT=50,4096,16384
I think it means Foxpro will try to use 50% of the available memory with
a minimum of 4mb and a maximum of 16mb. From what I've read 16mb sounds
like a good number for Foxpro.
