memory allocation

Hi,
I am wondering whether is possible to increase the memory allocated to RATS.
Is there any specific instruction ?
I am estimating VARS with a bunch of variables and wondering whether such instruction exists.
Thanks

There's no specific allocation for an application in modern versions of Windows. You get up to 2Gb in actual/virtual memory on the 32 bit version which is an absolute constraint since the 32 bit application can't address more than that. The 64 bit version doesn't have that limit. Are you running into memory problems? Simply estimating VARs would almost never cause a problem.

I am running into memory problems with my new version of RATS 8.10. I would like to use the release command, but I don't want to type all the variables (> 6000 of them)
I can't find which commands I can use the "x1 to xN" syntax, as in Dofor x = X1 to XN
I'd like to do:
Release X1 to Xn
But that doesn't seem to work. Are there other ways of freeing up space?

RELEASE applies to almost any type of variable, so the shortcut for seriesA TO seriesB that can be used when referring to a set of series won't work. How are you running into memory problems? How long are those 6000 series?
