Well, thanx for those who responded to above.  I have found out the causse of
the mentioned problem.  After running the same SEDT exe on another machine
without problem, I talk to the person who operates the troubled machine.
It turns out that at that time when I tried to run SEDT, he had a background
job running !  No wonder I got "program too large for memory" !


Anyway, sorry for wasting the bandwidth ! :-)

Have a Happy Thanksgiving ! (and drive safely !)
