Lack of disk space for stock split?

#1 10-29-2008, 12:47 AM

STOP!! Before you do anything else go back to your last backup before you
archived and restore that backup! Then update your file to account for all
the transactions since that backup. Archiving is a disaster. It does
nothing for you except lose access to all your transactions prior to the
archiving date. The slightly smaller file will give you no gain. After you
recover your file, someone here can help you with your problem, which has
nothing to do with the size of your data file.

ME had a type of memory allocation called GDI. That may be the
limiting factor. Try rebooting ME so that fewer things are running.
If that doesn't do it, try to have less stuff start up on boot.

I have a stock split that I need to enter in Money 2001 Standard Edition
(yes, I know it's old, but upgrading is not an option now). When I try to
enter it, I get the message, "The stock split could not be completed due to
lack of disk space." (There's plenty of space on the hard disk, of course.) I
have tried archiving old transactions, I ran scandisk & defrag, and even
tried doing a split in the sample file (which worked fine), but nothing has
fixed this. I could change the original buy orders to the split-adjusted
quantities & prices, but I'd rather fix the root problem. (BTW, I'm running
Me on a laptop and I've already maxed out the RAM.)
