VB Project consumes Win 98 System Resources

[Tim C Reed]

Howdy,

I have a new VB.NET Timesheet project that runs fine under XP, but crashes
and burns under 98 due to a lack of System Resources.

For example, I lose 68% of the System Resources by just opening the project,
even without any code! (P3 550 w/192MB.)

My program is a bit hefty with over 400 text fields, but still... 68% of
System Resources!? Yikes! Even MS Word only takes about 4%.

(Interestingly, I found I could free up HALF the resources if I change the
textboxes to WHITE.)

Anyone else seen this? Is there any other way to make such projects run
smaller under Win 98?

Thanks,
Tim

You mean you have 400 TextBoxes on a Form ???
Can you use a Grid/spreadsheet instead ?
