What do you mean by get, or more importantly, how do you need to use this value, or what do you need to do in response to it?

Hi,

the following code will read the amount of physical RAM in KB installed in the target PC.

function NUMBER getPhysicalRAM( )
	STRING szTemp;
	NUMBER nResult;
begin
	if( GetSystemInfo( EXTENDEDMEMORY, nResult, szResult) < 0 ) then 
		nResult = 0;
	endif; 
	return nResult;
end;

Have a look at the online help about GetSystemInfo, as this instruction does not return fully accurate results when used with EXTENDEDMEMORY. But it works fine for most purposes.

Regards
