Problem

Activating a transaction with a large number of lines on it reports an out of memory error.  This applies to 7.00.149 and 7.00.157 only.

Solution

The issue is caused because Jiwa is hitting the .NET 32-bit OS process limit of 2GB. We located a post that provided a way to allow 32-bit .exe files to address more than 2 GB.  This is done by patching the .exe file using an official Microsoft tool that comes with Visual Studio.  Download the relevant RAR file, extract Jiwa.exe and copy it into the Jiwa program directory after renaming the current Jiwa.exe.   Load and activate your relevant form.
