Peter,
How are you testing for a Nil pointer? Also check the ExceptObject value.
I have never come across this problem, except when I am debugging - if I
have break on exception, and if I have optimisation turned on (ought to
really turn this off when debugging) or stack frames turned off, Delphi can
sometimes get confused and refuse to give me correct values for program
variables. Sometimes it gives me the wrong scope. I also use a slightly
different approach:
try
...
except
with Exception(ExceptObject) do ...
end;
Dennis.
