Thanks for response Mathematica 6.0.1.0 Windows XP Pro SP2 32 bit 2GB of RAM, Commit charge: 2113/5977M. Perhaps, I should increase the page file, say to 2x3GB? It's if the FileByteCount actually loads the whole file into memory to find out about its size. I'll report later whether it worked. Ultimately, I'd like to know the size limit and how to load such big files by parts.
