TITLE   :INF: FoxPro for MS-DOS No Longer Supports Demand Paging
PRODUCT :Microsoft FoxPro
PROD/VER:2.5x 2.60 2.60a
OPER/SYS:MS-DOS
KEYWORDS:kbenv kbdocerr

--------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft FoxPro for MS-DOS, versions 2.5x, 2.6, 2.6a
--------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY
=======

FoxPro for MS-DOS does not enable demand paging if there is not enough
memory to start the Extended (32-bit) version of FoxPro.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Page 3-7 of the "Installation & Configuration Guide" states:

   If necessary, the Extended version of FoxPro enables demand paging to
   allow it to run in as little as 1.5 MB.

This sentence is incorrect. Unlike earlier versions of FoxPro, the 2.5x,
2.6, and 2.6a versions of FoxPro for MS-DOS now use the Phar Lap DOS
extender, which is DPMI compliant and does not support demand paging.
