It means you are too low on conventional memory to compile the necessary code. Try launching AREV with expanded memory enabled or from a flat DOS prompt outside of Windows.

i actually have the follow memory properties:
conventional memory: Automatic Protected : unselected
expanded memory: 4096
extended memory: none Hma: Selected
protected mode memory: Automatic
Thanks again,

Juan,
Your shortcut looks good, but have you confirmed from within AREV that Expanded memory is working? Type WHO from TCL and check the Expanded Memory setting for "Active". Also verify how much Available memory says you have.

Donald,
these are the Who results, the expanded memory is active apparently, can i change the aviable memory quantity?

You can't use more than 4096 K of EMS. Also, the Uses High Memory item should be Un-Checked. If you do 3 page down's from the WHO page, you can see how much EMS is Allocated and Used. If the Allocated is +- 2 MB, then the command line to start AREV didn't use the /M4096X parameter after the Account/User name. Should be
AREV /M4096X to start the app.

Juan,
As the other Don said, you can't use more than 4096K of expanded memory. Check page three of the WHO screen to see how much you are using.
The available memory is related to how well your machine is configured when AREV is launched. You can't set this value directly but it can be improved by better memory management. Your number is not too low, however, we usually like to see ]300K for optimum performance.

How I can change the values for used and allocated memory?
Thanks again.

Juan,
The "used" memory is up to AREV. You can't do anything about that.
The "allocated" is based on how you launch AREV and configure your short-cut. The other "Don" addressed this issue in his post. Essentially, your short-cut needs to allow for 4096K of expanded memory and your command line needs to have "/X M4096" trailing any other commands. For instance:
F:\AREV31\AREV.EXE MYAPP /X M4096
