What is runtime error 203? If you're reading this, then you've probably just experienced one. Unfortunately, there isn't a great deal of information available online (as you've probably already noticed.) Fortunately for you, you've just found one of the few available pages about the problem!
Runtime error 203 is memory related.
Many of this type of problem--not just 203--are memory related. Usually it means that, for whatever reason, your computer doesn't have enough current memory to keep up with the program that delivered the error message.
How can you fix this problem with computer memory?
There are a few things you can try.
1. Close down unnecessary programs that you see running. It may be possible for you to fix this problem simply by closing out other running software on your computer. Close out all the other programs that you know are running.
2. Check for other programs that you may not know are running. Press Ctrl+Alt+Del. In Windows Vista, this will take you to a multi-choice screen. Click on "Task Manager". In earlier versions of Windows, this key sequence should take you straight to the task manager.
The task manager is a little box that shows you the programs that are running on your computer. Sometimes it will show programs you didn't know were still running--and which shouldn't be. Click on anything that shows up as running, but that you don't actually see running on your desktop. Then click "End Task".
3. Check for updates to your software. Updates will often fix a number of glitches with the current version you're running. Even if there's nothing wrong with the current version, you may have a problem on your on computer that will be fixed when you update the software.
4. Re-install the software. As a last resort, you should uninstall and then re-install the software that is giving you the error message. This is one of the most effective-but-time-consuming ways to fix this problem.
But what if you can't fix runtime error 203 with the above methods?
It's possible that you have a problem with your Windows registry. Some registry problems can occur from software uninstalls and updates, which often leave useless files behind which can clutter up the registry.
More sinister problems may come from programs like viruses, Trojan horses, or malicious spyware programs. Anti-virus programs can usually take care of these threats, but often do little to remove the problems they leave behind.
