I have an error, which i cant seem to find. 1. It ONLY occurs in Debug mode (the Exeption is raised by the debugger - MSVC) 2. I Can''t Find out what lines its on. I add a breakpoint on the line i managed to narrow down, then just when you think youve found it, you try the next line to be sure, but its not crashing on the previous line?! ie. it moves to the line after where break point is!! it says First Chance Exeption at Address 0x000005 (Or similar) got ANY ideas ?? its really pissing me off.

I had one like that (0xc000005), turned out to be an HWND assignment from CreateWindow. The way I found it was to put a breakpoint at the beginning of my program and trace through the whole thing, looking at the debugger window the whole time. You should probably place your breakpoint on the function that calls that line (and step into it) or few lines before suspect line (MSVC is bitchy about breakpoints). I''d suggest paying close attention to any = statements are anything else that messes with memory locations.

Its not much, but its the best I can offer. Hope it helps.
