When I run my program in the debugger (Microsoft V6.0 professional), I'm getting messages that say 'First-chance exception in 'programname'.exe (GDI32.DLL) 0xC0000005: Access Violation.<br><br>Now I'm guessing that this means that a bogus parameter is getting passed over to another function and causing an error, but I'm having a real bugger of a time finding it.&nbsp;&nbsp;My question is: what could be causing this and how do I go about fixing it?<br><br>Thanks<br>Nyjil.
 
Dear Nyjil,<br><br>Use the 'Call Stack' view to find the entry point in your code to the error.<br><br>Hope this helps<br>-pete
