Picture It! Error Message: There Might Not Be Enough Memory to Complete This Operation... (241557)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Picture It! 2000

This article was previously published under Q241557

SYMPTOMS

On the initial screen of a Web Album project, you may receive the following error message if you click Close the Current Picture, and then attempt to save the file when you are prompted to do so:
Picture It! Error

There might not be enough memory to complete this operation, or another problem might exist. Please save your work, restart Picture It!, and try again.
When you click OK, Picture It! returns to the Web Album project.

Because you cannot edit a Web Album project in Picture It! after you create it, your only choices are to proceed and finish the Web Album project without closing the picture, or to cancel the Web Album project and start again.

CAUSE

This behavior can occur if you opened the file that you are attempting to save from a source with read-only access, such as a CD-ROM or a network share.

This behavior occurs only if you do not save the file before you start the Web Album project.

WORKAROUND

To prevent this issue from occurring, save the file before you start the Web Album project. In addition, close files that you do not plan to include in your Web Album project before you start the project.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
