Chris:

I have an AppleScript stay-open applet that intermittently displays an error
message on quitting that states "Could not save changes" because "the
required resources were not found."  The message is accompanied by an error
number of -192, which I understand is the error for a resource not found.

The applet has a repeat loop that loads a large number of script files (>
100) during the run and puts their content into variables.  Could this heap
memory limit be the problem?  If that is a possibility, I would like the
instructions.  If not, do you have any ideas what else might be causing this
error message?
