st: Increasing Memory Allocation

[Rick Tardanico <tardanic@fiu.edu>]

I have a very large data file (2.42GB) that I am trying to read into 
Stata. I am currently using the Intercooled 8.2 version. I have tried to 
increase the amount of memory allocated by using the "set memory" 
command with no luck as I keep receiving the message: "no; data in 
memory would be lost".  Are there any suggestions with regard to this 
issue? Could this have anything to do with the version of Stata that I 
am using?
Thank you,
Jen Wolfe
