Foxpro has a MEMLIMIT statement that can be utilized to control the amount of memory that the application takes from the operating system when it loads. Even under Windows 3.1 and Win95, Foxpro DOS (and Foxpro Win) will consume all the memory and ignore any limits set in .PIF files.

The MEMLIMIT statement must be put in the CONFIG.FP that is used for starting the Foxpro or runtime Foxpro application.

The format is:

MEMLIMIT=60,4096,6144

This line says that Foxpro can use up to 60% of the available memory, not less than 4096K and not more than 6144K. The numbers can be adjusted according to your needs, but this seems to work well for most applications. (The numbers don't have to be rounded off).
