On my PC with 256K of RAM, if I have 3 or 4 one meg. drawings open, my available memory drops to 5-10% available and subsequently crashes!! I start out with 90% RAM available and it drops fast! What gives? I'm unhappy with the VW9 product and am paranoid using it for my engineering practice. By the way - where in tarnation is the metafile export that is suppose to be on the dropdown menu? I need metafiles to import into another engineering program. this nonsense is beyond belief.
