Out of memory??



 Hi,

I've got a script (developed with help from this list) that exports tagged items from an inDesign document to an XML file. It then filters characters in the xml file and tidies up a few odds and ends and saves the xml for import into a main frame.

The script has been running just fine for weeks, but has developed a problem. On the user's mac it's generating an "out of memory" error.   

It runs fine on my mac and other macs in my office, but generates this error on the user's mac and another mac in her office.

It generates the error only if run as a droplet. If I install the script in the inDesign script palette and run it from there, it works. 

The error seems to occur outside of any application tell block.  (The error is trapped in a try block and "out of memory" is the error's text value).

Now I know this is sketchy information and there's a lot more I need to do to narrow it down (installing Script Debugger on the user's mac would be a good place to start) but it's the "out of memory" error that's got me puzzled. I haven't seen this error in Mac OS 10, and thought they were a thing of the past.  

Has anyone else encountered an "out of memory" error?
