I can't tell you exactly (since I'm running NT right now), but basically Right mouse button over the title bar of a dos window Select "memory" find the drop down box for "Initial environment" and change it from "auto" to 1024. Click "Apply" I think it asks you if you want to use this for this instance or all instances, select all instances. Good luck. Mark

Find the shortcut e.g. on your Desktop. Right click on it and then click on Properties. Click on the Memory tab and enter 4096 in the Initial Environment box. Click OK. You should now have enough Environment space. -- Nick Holford, Dept Pharmacology & Clinical Pharmacology University of Auckland, Private Bag 92019, Auckland, New Zealand email:n.holford@auckland.ac.nz tel:+64(9)373-7599x6730 fax:373-7556 http://www.phm.auckland.ac.nz/Staff/NHolford/nholford.htm

If I'm not misktaken, you have to add to the CONFIG.SYS file the following command: SET COMSPEC = C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\COMMAND.COM /E:1024 The important part is the E:1024. This increases the envirnoment space NONMEM, or better the fortran complier, is compaining about. The path of the command.com has to be adapted according to the directory where your command.com is stored. Hope it works, I can't test it right now because I'm running Windows 2000.
