Trouble loading large data into AceDB

Dear Ed, 

Thanks for your help. When it crashed, the AceDB Main windows always just 
disappeared without any error msg. So, when I tried to load the Acefile, it 
will stall at certain point for about 10 sec, then crashed as I described. 

I am using AceDB 4.3 on Linux redhat 5.2, Dual PII 450, 768 MB ram. 

BTW, everytime it crashed, it holds a big chunk of memory. Unless I reboot the 
system, it won't release the memory.
