Memory
I wrote a simple database browser in visual basic, possibly in a more roundabout way than I had to, but I was completely new to programming at the beginning.
Anyway, when i run the program, it takes up 6 megs of memory straight away, which often rises to 10 megs the more features that are used. This is according to the task manager (XP). Is this an unusually large amount? Ta, Keys |

Database applications, depending on how they are written, are usually memory hogs. It takes a lot of memory to store things to display, especially for large recordsets.
Just as an example, the Access database I am using (which accesses SQL Server as a back end) is using 23 MB of memory. |
