It has nothing to do with System 7. The amount of memory needed is related  
to the sizes of the open windows (presumably unchanged) and also the  
number of colors. If his machine is using 24-bit color, say, he might try  
switching to 8-bit color, or increasing the partition size for  
FoxBASE+/Mac (assuming he's using MultiFinder), or adding more memory.
