Engine Won't Keep Running

I have a problem with my 94 Saab 900SE V6 (96,000 miles). Everytime when I do a lot of driving, ie..running about my neighbourhood doing errands, the car would not hold idle. It starts up just fine and then dies. If I put my foot on the gas, the engine runs on high rpm, but dies immediately after I take my foot off. I had to drive my car to the workshop with one foot on the gas, one on the brakes, and my left hand on the shifter to change it to neutral so that I can rev the engine to keep it alive. Once at the shop, the engine died when I took my foot off, and when my mechanic came and fired her up...Guess what....the car started up and he asked me what's the problem? He told he it could be the IDLE MOTOR, but then again, he couldn't find anything wrong with it. He also told me to reset the computer (disconnect the battery for 10 minutes, let the computer recalibrate, and see what happens). I did that, and the car seemed fine for a week, then it happened again. It could not fire up??? However, after I recalibrated the computer again via battery disconnect, it fired up just fine....Please tell me what is wrong
