Hi, Petr,
You must have a 2Gb or larger disk... ;-)
Try changing the inital value of TOTAL to floating point
and see if it helps.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Why? Won't it will simply
fall thru the following loop
without changing TOTAL from
its initial value?

I can trigger that error with a simple integer calculation which
overflows integer range, but it disappears when the calculation
is done with non-integer numbers.
