I've zipped the files and placed them in the upload site. Unfortuntely, I
had to run the application much longer when attempting to get the dump than
it usually requires to crash. The crash occurs when selecting the
Debug->Processes... menu item, BEFORE the process list dialog is displayed.
Unfortunately I could not close all other applications. I had to have Visio
running because I'm debugging a large in-proc Visio addin.
I hope you can provide some direction on this failure. It is quite annoying
to lose the debug information that you've set up when the crash occurs. It
is one thing if you have a simple application, but ours is a complex large
solution with 40 projects.
Again, all of my colleagues running Windows XP are experiencing this same
problem. The Win 2K users don't seem to complain. I even created a new user
account with a clean system a couple of days ago, and that account had the
same problem the very first time I attempted to attach the debugger to the
Visio process. So it appears that it is not something that has accumulated
in a user profile or something like that over time.
By the way, most of our systems are dual processor if that is of concern.
Thanks,
Michael
