Gary, Review the contents of CONFIG.NT in the %windir%\System32 folder. Does it have entries like these: dos=high, umb device=%SystemRoot%\system32\himem.sys files=100 Make it has the line dos=high and bump up the files= What does your Autoexec.nt file have in it? -- Maurice N MVP Windows - Shell / User ----- Gary Y wrote: > I am trying to run a dos program on XP.

is triggered when a batch file attempts to set an environment variable but cannot because the shell is out of environment space. We recommend that you set the environment size http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/90235-45-program-error-2009-space-environment to be at least 2048. There are a number of ways to do this, one of which is (in Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0): 1. Open a dos prompt window (if http://www.polymath-software.com/support/environ.htm yours opens full-screen, hit Alt+Enter to get a window). 2. Click on the 'Properties' button at the top. 3. At the end of the Cmd line, add the text '/e:2048' (if you've already got this, change the existing number to 2048 or greater). Another way to do this (for Windows 3.x and Windows95) is: 1) Open the SYSTEM.INI file and find the section "[NonWindowsApp]". 2) Ensure this section contains the following entry: CommandEnvSize=2048 This size can be adjusted upward...

You can use a special batch-file to "unset" most of the vars. This file you must "call" at first of the program execution.Sample batch file "set_env.bat":--------------------------------@echo off set ALLUSERSPROFILE=set APPDATA=set CLASSPATH=rem set CLIENTNAME=set CommonProgramFiles=set Computername=set FP_NO_HOST_CHECK=set HomeDrive=set HOMEPATH=set HOMESHAREset LOGONSERVER=set NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS=set os=set PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE=set PROCESSOR_IDENTIFIER=set PROCESSOR_LEVEL=set PROCESSOR_REVISION=set ProgramFiles=set QTJAVA=set SESSIONNAME=set temp=set tmp=set USERDOMAIN=set USERGROUP=set USERNAME=set USERPROFILE=set windir=set Path=C:\windows;C:\windows\system32;C:\windows\system32\wbemif "%1"=="quit" goto Enddbase4.exe %1:End--------------------------------The second step is to call the set_env-file as first - look the next sample:--------------------------------C:cd C:\Prog16\turnus\prgcall set_env.bat turnus.prg RE: error 2009 not enough space in environment agussr (Programmer) (OP) 12 Sep 05 01:21 Dear heiteixyz,Thank you for your a
