Moderate: Requires basic macro, coding, and interoperability skills.



SYMPTOMS
When you open an attached Btrieve table, you may receive the following error message:

Btrieve-Out of Resources



CAUSE
If you are using compressed Btrieve files, you must be sure that the compression buffer Btrieve is using is adequate for your data. The buffer size must be at least as large as the largest record in your data files.



RESOLUTION
To ensure proper operation, set the compression buffer size option (/u) in the [btrieve] section of your WIN.INI file (for Btrieve version 5.1x), or your NOVDB.INI file (for Btrieve version 6.x). The units for this setting are kilobytes, so if your largest record is 2K, you would add /u:2 to the Btrieve options line in the .INI file.
