Re: Memory problem!!

Hi Danish,

Usually the error message "9999999 words were requested"
indicates that the expression has an "abstract" axis for which
you have not specified the limits

In your command
    FILL salt[j=43,l=1], x, dept[j=43]

the variable "x" as it stands is an abstract axis.
(Pseudo-variables do not inherit axes from other expressions on
the same line -- only from other variables within the same
expression.

Try replacing "X" with "X[g=salt]"
