Actually, Ventura doesn't support EXTENDED memory at all, but only
LIM 4.0 EXPANDED memory.  A lot's been written about the differences
between the two, but I've forgotten it all.  All I know is that it
took about 2 minutes to set up the extra memory on my AST 386 as
expanded memory.  The base version of Ventura 2.0, which I have,
uses a relatively small amount of this memory for program code (a
little over 100K, according to the documentation).  The Professional
Extension can use as much as you have, and can use it for your
document.
