Does anyone know what is going on and how to resolve this issue?

I am using Solidworks 2012 64-bit on Windows 7 Ulitmate. I am running many itterations of a part through solidworks simulation through matlab. After around 800 itterations, solidworks resource monitor comes up to say that my avalible open document capacity is critically low and crashes. I have plenty of Ram Storage and Virtual Memory not being used.

How many documents are open? Is your applicaton properly closing and releasing the documents after each iteration? Windows has a limit on how many GDI objects it can have allocated. The SolidWorks error message indicates that you are exceeding that limit.

  The only applications I have open while the simulation is running are Matlab and Solidworks. One dimension changes by a particular step size, gets rebuilt, and the simulation is run. As far as I can tell, the application is closing properly. I am running Solidworks Student Edition 2012 with service pack 2.
