What does "Out of memory" mean from Keynote?

Question

I have had my macbook for about 5 months, and I am still learning to use the Iwork programs. Today, i tried to open a powerpoint file and I repeatedly receved a "out of memory" notification from Keynotes. What does that mean? And is there a way for me to open this document?
Thanks for any help, in advance!

You should not keep a String array of all the lines of the file read.
Instead for each line read, parse it, then write the parsed line in the other file:      public void loadFixedWidthFile() {
         BufferedReader in = null;
         BufferedWriter out = null;
         try {
            //File must be in same director and be the name of the string below
            in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("files/FLAT.txt"));
            out = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("files/outfilename.txt"));
            String str;
            while ((str = in.readLine()) != null) {
               //System.out.println(str.length());
               str = parseThatLine(str);
               //write out the parsed str to another file
               out.write(str);
         catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace(); // At least print the exception - never swallow an exception
         finally { // Use a finally block to be sure of closing the files even when exception occurs
            try { in.close(); }
            catch (Exception e) {}
            try { out.close(); }
            catch (Exception e) {}
      }//end loadFixedWidthFile()Regards
