VB6 - why i get the error 8 on CreateDIBSection()?

[cambalinho]

i'm using CreateDIBSection():

Public Function NewImage(ByVal ImageWidth As Long, ByVal ImageHeight As Long, Optional color As ColorConstants = vbBlack) As Long
    If (Width > 0 Or Height > 0 Or hBitmap > 0 Or PointerPixelData > 0) Then DeleteImage
    Width = ImageWidth
    Height = ImageHeight

    'Criar HDC

    MemoryHDC = CreateCompatibleDC(0)

    With bmiInfo.bmiHeader
        .biSize = Len(bmiInfo.bmiHeader)
        .biWidth = Width
        .biHeight = -Height ' is negative for start on top left pixel image
        .biPlanes = 1
        .biBitCount = 32
        .biCompression = BI_RGB
        .biSizeImage = AlignScan(bmiInfo.bmiHeader.biWidth, bmiInfo.bmiHeader.biBitCount) * bmiInfo.bmiHeader.biHeight
    End With
    If MemoryHDC = 0 Then MsgBox "error: HDC not created!!!"
    hBitmap = CreateDIBSection(0&, bmiInfo, DIB_RGB_COLORS, PointerPixelData, 0&, 0&)
    If hBitmap = 0 Then MsgBox "error: " & GetLastError()
    oldBitmap = SelectObject(MemoryHDC, hBitmap)

    'using pointers:
     ' Get the bits in the from DIB section:

    With tSA
        .fFeatures = FADF_FIXEDSIZE Or FADF_AUTO
        .cbElements = 4
        .cDims = 1
        .Bounds(0).lLbound = 0
        .Bounds(0).cElements = bmiInfo.bmiHeader.biHeight * bmiInfo.bmiHeader.biWidth
        .pvData = PointerPixelData
    End With
     'Erase bDib
    ' Make the bDib() array point to the memory addresses:
    CopyMemory ByVal VarPtrArray(bDib()), VarPtr(tSA), 4
    CopyMemory ByVal VarPtrArray(bDibBGRA()), VarPtr(tSA), 4
    'Clear color
End Function

why, after 4 IDE executions, using CreateDIBSection(), i get, on GetLastError(), 8 : "Not enough memory resources are available to process this command."?
but on EXE i don't get these problem... but why?

Time to retire VB6. Move to something current. Just 2 days ago I nabbed two copies of Visual Studio Pro for 50USD each. Why 2? Office needed more licenses.

VB6 does have limited resources so you will run out on heavy operations.
