Access Violations 1

[fergmj]

I use BCB 5.0 and for the first time, I am getting access violation errors. Can someone tell me how to use the Borland debugger to fnd out where the error is occurring?

Thanks

I have noticed in BCB4 that if you get violations that most of the time its due to declared variable types conflicting with each other. But this is the simple explanation, the web site in previous post is good reading.

Use
F7 for stepping into
F8 for stepping over
F4 for moving to a cursor position
and set conditional breakpoints if you are debugging a loop.
The rest will come through experience.
