Hello again,

I can only assume that this is a very small issue in HeapCreate

global atom pHeap
pHeap = c_func(xHeapCreate,{0,16384,0})

this is not large enough
try @ line:288 in effm.exw replacing 16384 w/ 32768

This increases the heaps initial buffer size
If this solves the issue for you please let me know.

Nothing has changed with the call or parms to HeapAlloc since Win-95 per
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/memory/base/heapalloc.asp?frame=true
so I have no reason to suspect function myalloc() is a problem.

Regards,
Euman
