Why not just do what Jelsoft advise you to do.. keep upping the memory limit until it works

Its useless. I'm trying to find out if there is a way to load templates from a file whilst you're developing them, save copying them into the db all the time..

So I searched for 'load template from file'
-> Error.

Ok, limit it to just 3.5 templates forum
-> Error.

Limit it to last month
-> Error.

This is a long time annoyance of mine with VB, it seems to exhaust endless amounts of RAM whilst searching.. they really do need to fix this as its a) making the search feature next to useless and b) pushing the resource footprint for a forum to a point where it makes the resource footprint of Windows XP look tiny.

Seriously though, its really annoying.
