Virtual Memory Macro

R

Roy Harrill

Hello Everyone,
Windows XP keeps telling me my virtual memory (aka swap file) is low,
especially when I'm working in Excel. Is there a way to program a macro in
Excel that would tell me how much virtual memory I have in total and how
much is being currently used? Or ids there something in Windows XP itself
that provides this info? Thanks in advance.

Thanks, Jim. Yes, that's the way to drill down and see (and set) the swap
file size. I was hoping there was a way, perhaps via the Windows API, to
write a macro that would tell me the more important number, i.e., the size
and percentage of the swap file in use.
