Re: BDE error on opening P9

>  Could not initialize BDE.: Insufficient shared memory available.

that meesage is usually associated with other BDE usage, like Delphi..
can't 
say that I know the last time (if ever) that I saw it associated with 
Paradox software.. do a search on the BDE forum at Borland..

forums.borland.com is the newsgroup.. borland.public.bde is the section..
