Don't know whether you've talked with TMG's tech support. What you're
getting is a message indicating that there aren't enough memory slots
reserved for the process you're trying to perform. When I bumped into this
problem, the following was advised and fixed it:

When you're in any View, click on Tools. Then click on Text Editor (first
line of the 4th group from the top). Slide down to the file config.fpw and
click the select button. If you see a line that starts

MVCOUNT=

it probably has a value of 1000. I changed this to 3000.

If there isn't such a line, type in

MVCOUNT=3000

Then hit the F10 function key to save the work. Exit TMG and restart so
that it will run with the increased space. See whether this helps.
