AREV 3.12 Application keeps crashing! (AREV Specific)

We're currently running a Payroll application developed in AREV 3.12 running under Novell 3.12. The application is being run in a DOS box under Windows 3.11. The workstation is a Pentium 90 with 16MB RAM and has Novell Client 32 for DOS ver 2.6 installed. When running a particular report which is quite intensive (Queries many files) the AREV application crashes as well as Windows 3.11. When we run other reports which are not so intensive no problem.
When we run the application under DOS only no problem. I am suspecting that this particular report is causing memory leakages under Windows 3.11
What do you think? Have any of you experienced similar problems?

I never WIn 3.x to be stable. The fact that your report runs under DOS is a rather strong indictment against Win 3.x SOunds to me as though you either break that report into multiple, simpler processes (perhaps using intermeiate files) or host with a later platform that is more memory agile.

Are you using Prestige from ZPS (Dataccounts)? I ask this because this week we've developed a problem running intensive reports or queries too, and it just seems like a weird coincidence that you would be having the same problem too.

Exactly how does the application crash? Are there any error messages?
You should set up your PIF file as outlined in the ARev FAQ.
If your report is doing any BTREE.EXTRACT calls, place a FLUSH;GARBAGECOLLECT before the btree call. It might not hurt to add a few extras in the code anyway.
