Hi Geoff, Me too :( and yes, 'split/combine' with 'for each' are useful!
Ony processing 10-20Mb here, but parsing into arrays I run out of memory. I am maxed out for XP (4Gb). Will have to upgrade to Win7 to access more, I fear, and/or re-write to chunk the data. I didn't realise they were going to be processing that volume. With multi-gigs of data, you will certainly have to chunk the data. And access your progress bar judiciously!

Speed optimization will be key... _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
