Tracking Virtual Memory

I have an application written with Excel's VBA that performs batch

track virtual memory using VBA, so that I can close and reopen the
program when the memory gets low?

Thanks,

Well, Excel *is* notorious for leaking memory, and it has not gotten any
better with any revision or update since Excel 1.0 I used on a
Macintosh. The problem is prevalent in just the type of repetetive file
operations that you are doing, and I have never seen a posted definitive
solution. Having responded with this answer, maybe you and I will get
lucky.
