HELP - Un-Handled Error Message prior to 'Sub Main'

[Fred Gravel]

I have a Windows app that I have installed on 3 client machines (all
win2k) thatreturn an un-handled error message when starting up.

I have placed 'Try/Catch/Finally' blocks in the 'sub main' and it
doesn't even get to there. Problem is the application works fine on my
development PC.

I have MDAC v2.8 and Framework 1.1 on all machines. I have cross
checked all of the .dll versions and verified that they are the same as
the ones on my machine

What runs BEFORE sub main ?

Hi Fred,

Static variables can be initialized before Sub Main gets executed. If an
application crashes due to exception, you should be able to get the
exception description and call stack. Call stack should be a good source of
the information where the application crashed.
