hi Luc,
  I put your codes in front and still performing illegal operations and the program works on
other machines (running NT4). Is the memory management in Win98 that bad. Also
I don't know why the available physical memory is only 15M left after 
a fresh reboot (system monitor) and there are some locked memory (35.7M)
How can I clear some background shareware to increase my physical?

Thanks

Anthony
