I would at some more or less strategic points in the program put in:
savedata "temp_01.rec" /replace cls close read "temp_01.rec"
so that not everything must be retained in memory. Of course, you may put in such instances (though I would name the consecutive files "*.*_02, _03, etc"). If it then still crashes, you could exit and resume where you last saved. Of course, don't keep too many other windows with programs open.

Hello,
I am starting out with Epidata Analysis so this might be a very basic question.
I tried to run a very lengthy script (over 800,000 lines of commands) and it went about 3/4 through when I got the following error message (I had left the program open overnight to let it run):
"PGM Error:
Out of memory"
What "memory" is it referring to? How can I fix this?
Thank you very much for any help!
