Application Error

[Warnie]

Hello,

I am working on a large VB application which is using a lot of third party controls. I have a large set of menus which lead to different forms. On one particular option, I am getting a new error from today. The error being:

---------------------------
vb6.exe - Application Error
---------------------------
The instruction at "0x0bca3699" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be "read".


Click on OK to terminate the program
Click on CANCEL to debug the program
---------------------------
OK Cancel
---------------------------

When I choose Cancel, it took me to VC++ giving the message
---------------------------
Microsoft Visual C++
---------------------------
Unhandled exception in VB6.EXE (PVOUTLOOKBAR.OCX): 0xC0000005: Access Violation.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

It is to be noted that PVOUTLOOKBAR is a third party control I am using. Is there a problem with it? Kindly enlighten.

Thanks,
Warnie

i have had this type of error occur (many times) with dll's (that i've written) that either got bad parameters or generated an exception due to some incorrect assumption being made about the data being passed into the dll. so i would agree with cclint, call the supplier of the ocx
