When I run my code in the Debug configuration in VC 6, I get this error in one of those Assert dialogs: DAMMAGE: after Normal block (#17) at 0x007F0EC0 Does anyone know what this error means? Thanks in advance.

I think it is a memory leak.

I believe it means that you have changed data past the end of a piece of memory that you allocated.

Try checking out the Microsoft site and just putting in "after Normal block" as the search string - takes you to the online manuals (looks to be an access outside of allocated memory error)

Sorry.. not memory leak.. memory access violation.


something like

char s[3]; // only 3 bytes.

strcpy(s, "More than 3 bytes");

Thanks for all your replies. I guess I''ll have to look through my code.
