same exe on a different machine (Windows XP Prof SP-2), The application


is bought up and after some time its throwing a windows xp error dialog

everything works fine.


Here is thr Windows XP error dialog box that appreas when its crashed
TODO: <File description> has encountered a problem and needs to close.
We are sorry for any inconenience.


If you are in the middle of something, the information you were working



on might be lost.


Please tell Microsoft about this problem.


blab blah....


I have function called OnNotifyNewData (WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
which appreas to be cauing the problem. When I run the application
commenting this function its didnt crashed.


LRESULT CUserViewFrame::OnNotifyNewData (WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)

PARAM
lParam)")


const char* strVariable1("CUserViewFrame::OnNotifyNewData
END");
CUtility::LogDebugInfo( strVariable1, strValue);


return 0;



}


Is there any chance the sprintf or CString Format function is creating
this problem.

I have spent lot of time it undertsanding this bug with no success. Any

help would be greatly appreciated.

Sandy
