[AccessD] System Resources Exceeded

"out of system resources" is used for a number of things.

Disk space, hitting the lock limit, DB getting too big, running out of
process address space, etc.

I would:

1. Make sure the disk has free space.  
2. Check that the DB is not near the 2GB limit.
3. Add dbEngine.Setoption dbMaxLocksPerFile , 500000  to your startup code.

 See if that clears things up.   If not and your running 32bit office, then
you're probably running out of process address space.   Access is not large
address aware, so it's limited to 2GB of space.  Switching to 64bit would
solve the issue (but give you others possibly).

Hello Group,
Just had a weird error pop-up on a relatively stable, small DB.  Win7 and
Win10 OSs, some with Access13, some with Access16 FE and BE.  Happened once
about two months ago, did a C&R and the problem went away.  However the
customer is reporting the issue is now occurring about 50% of the time.

Simple import routine, loads .txt file data (10 to 100 records) to a temp
table, then loads them to staging table and from there does a randomizer
routine to load to a table assigning X amount of records to any particular
auditor.  This process takes maybe a minute?  Two minutes?  Part of that
latency is due to extreme network distance from the user and the server
farm, however that's never been an issue.

Googling this the only suggested answer to the issue was provided by a
Mark-NC, see below.
I have seen this problem when running Access on a computer with multiple
processors. Try changing the Processor Affinity for the MSACCESS process in
Task Manager down to just one processor, and see if that improves
performance.

Any help/clarification on this is greatly appreciated.  Thanks.
