Microsoft Access There Isn't Enough Memory To Perform This Operation
I have an out of memory error on access. My DB is approx 20mb and holds approx 100,000 lines in different tables. It started this afternoon, whenever i go in the VBA editor, i can't edit anything, because it will delete the text i just typed, and popup "Out of memory". If i try to use a OnUpdate event on a DropDown list, it will say the same error, runtime error 7 out of memory and will do nothing. I can't even setup a break point on my code, because it will never go in the code. I tried compacting it, separating the back and front end. but nothing works, same error.

This should bypass running the code and take you into your development list of queries, tables, forms, etc. See if you can start from there and set some breakpoints in your code. –Scottie Jun 13 '13 at 19:17 I can go in the code, i can setup a break point, but since access work with event... well i can't fire up any code since any event has an Out Of Memory error. Maybe my form is corrupted... –Insecurefarm Jun 13 '13 at 19:26 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 2 down vote accepted Strange errors like this are sometimes caused by a corrupt form in your database. I would recommend trying to decompile the database file. You can get more information about the /dec

"Out of memory" error when compiling Expert 100+ P: 1,204 jimatqsi I've been fighting this error for 2 days now. I've decompiled and compressed the DB. It's normally about 100MB after compression and grows sometimes to about 150MB. I've googled this and found a number of suggestions but so far nothing has helped. I've gotten it in both Access 2007 and 2003; I keep the DB in Access 2003 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17095194/out-of-memory-error-on-access format so I can use either of those versions. I've deleted forms and modules no longer used; I've changed many Public functions to Private functions, as many as I could. I read somewhere that a reference to a missing table can do this. Does anybody know about that? I may have deleted some tables or links to tables that I thought were no longer used. (And https://bytes.com/topic/access/answers/911390-out-memory-error-when-compiling they're not but maybe some unused code references one). Any ideas? Thanks, Jim Apr 6 '11 #1 Post Reply ✓ answered by Stewart Ross Following on from my last reply, I wonder if you have a missing END IF at the end of a sub or function? If I remember correctly, this does not generate the error that you would expect - a missing END for a block IF - but can cause stack space issues which, like endless recursion, result in Out of Memory errors. -Stewart Share this Question 5 Replies Expert Mod 100+ P: 2,314 TheSmileyCoder I had a similar issue once, and whether or not the cause of it is the same as yours only Access knows. What I would suggest is to search all your code for SET statements, and make sure that for each SET statement there is a matching SET=nothing statement at the end of the procedure. I believe that access in theory should collect the garbage itself when you exit the function/sub, but I have heard that its still a good idea to do such a cleanup. At least it worked for me.

It seems that he's getting the error message "out of memory" when attempting to access the VBA editor. He's tried closing all other applications, checked for background programs, and he has ample disk space. The error message even occurs in workbooks with relatively small procedures. It could, realistically, be any number of conditions causing the problem. Because of this, it can be hard to track down the cause. There are a couple of clues that suggest that the problem may be due to either an add-in or to a problem with your macro modules. You can figure out if it is an add-in by simply starting Excel with all the add-ins disabled. Add them back in, one at a time, until you notice the error
