Can anyone explain why I would get a disk full error in the middle of a procedure? I have checked an the disk is NOT full. Is this some kind of write error? I was able to click through this error and my report completed, but the data was incomplete, naturally.

AskWoody LoungerMarch 24, 2004 at 7:05 pm #804273Technically, you may not have enough RAM to run the report, but I am pulling at straws here.
Have you checked your queries that drive the report for a cartesian product to ensure that you are not generating data that isn’t necessary. I have “Crashed” many different systems by having invalid joins and doing just this. I would cheat by putting a Select Distinct… in the query to get rid of the duplicates, but I ultimately had to fix the queries when the systems crashed or I received the not enough memory error.
You may also have too many different applications open at once. Try closing some of them.

AskWoody LoungerMarch 24, 2004 at 7:11 pm #804277thanks for your reply, Gary
This is being run on a Citrix server, so it is possible that I might not have enough RAM on the server. This is a very intermittent problem–probably once in 25 runs or so.
I just need to add an error handler to catch this and terminate the report altogether and instruct the user to begin again. I think the error happens at different points in the code and in different procedures, although I’m not sure. How can I write an Error handling procedure that would catch this one error regardless of which module or procedure it occurred in?
