I would like to learn something here so I will state the obvious and see why I am wrong. A structure where each element exceeds 64k with a thousand elements is a 64Meg structure. It does not seem to me to be unusual that OS/2 is trying to allocate a 64Meg slice of virtual memory which translates into a 64Meg addition to your swapper file. It seems natural that 20Meg of (free) disk space is not enough. I to am using emx/gcc 0.8e and though not as ambitious am also using structures that have large elements and many elements in the structure. Is this right? Matt
