Hi

Thanks, that sounds plausible. However IIRC 7.1.x doesn't have cursors :(

It would be prohibitively complex to try to rework the queries - is there a
particular memory chunk its likely to be (and how to increase whats
available?) The server isn't short of RAM so should be a reasonable
workaround for now.

Thanks

Shane
