   How to I access more memory with my programs using djgpp compiler.


DJGPP uses DPMI to get access to nearly unlimited virtual memory.  So either
get more real memory or free up disk space for DPMI swap or get a bigger disk.
BTW check your DPMI server it may limit the amount of virtual memory it will 
allocate, this is usually configurable.  I think this is also covered in the FAQ
in more detail.
