Save some memory

[john42]

I have notised that when i run my application in win 98 it takes to much memory. Sometimes i get the "Out of memory" error. If i try to run other programs while my application is running i get an error message like "There is not enough memory to run this program".

My application works fine with win200 and winxp, but not on win98 even tho i have 512 mb of ram.
My compiled EXE-file is about 2,3 mb and contains about 1800 controls. I have 80 pictureboxes that i use as containers to the other controls. I also use the pictureboxes to display a backgroundimage, if the user wants that (thats why i´m not using frames).

I belive that it is the pictureboxes that takes up most of the memory, and if i would make about 10 arrays of them, could that save a few mb of memory?

Maybe i should mention that 1241 of those controls is arrays of labels
