I have BoundsChecker if you wanna borrow it. It may point out something
that Slueth doesn't. Give me a call.
Just a thought.... do any of the indexes involved have expressions rather
than fields?

Subject: Re: [DUG]: memory leaks??
I am using BDE 5.01 & Delphi 4.02
However a version compiled in Delphi 3 and running with BDE 4.0 has
the same problem.
I assume that that means that it is my code but what do i look
for????
