Problem

Symptoms: The customer notices that at times his chained macros run and at other times they won't run and he gets out of memory messages. He wants to know how much memory he needs for his macros to run. Solutions: There is no way to determine if you will have enough memory. The memory available is very dynamic and is handled by a quite complex algorithm. Macros use cache memory and will not use expanded memory. A couple of items that will compete with macros for memory are a keyboard selection and the .PRS file. Removing a keyboard selection or selecting a smaller .PRS file (removing unnecessary fonts) will free memory for the macros.
