Chris, Do exactly what you suggest and pass the data between datasessions using cursorToXML(),

It may not be brilliantly fast but it will do the job.

Hi All

I am running a routine which continually repeats a query from an ODBC source to sync some data.

There seems to be a problem with the driver that over time the .EXE I have created takes up more and more memory until it goes bang.

If I change this to query from a different source requiring a different driver I don’t have an issue (i.e. I’m happy it’s not me 😊 )

I would like to keep the EXE running rather than scheduling it to run close run close etc. As I have a log on the screen showing a visual status of the query and when it was last completed.

I am now thinking there must be an easy way to fire off this query in a different datasession or thread so that any problems caused by the ODBC driver are lost after each execution, any brilliant ideas?

Thanks

Chris.

Chris, Unfortunately if it is a roque process within the driver that is eating up memory then you may not be able to control it. Have you tried using the ODBC Driver just to read in data and monitored the Memory settings to see how much and when this is happening.

Also as a WAG, have you tried setting the _VFP.AutoYield setting to .F. (By default it is .T.)
