Two days ago, without reason my Delphi 7 started to crash when: 1. I switched between projects 2. I closed the IDE from the top right 'x' button.
I installed lots of debuggers and utilities to find the reason and I spent lot of time in Google. Nothing came up. Finally, I deleted one single 'DSK' file from a project I used often and guess what! Now it works. Every time I switched to that project, Delphi crashed but not instantly, it crashed 'on close', so there was a pattern but it was difficult to see it. Just to be sure, I put the old DSK file back and the problem re-appeared. I had a similar problem with a program that did not compiled right. I manually deleted all DCU in that project and recompiled. Everything was ok. Conclusion: when in doubt delete all files generated by IDE/compiler. Keep only the source code. _______________________________________________ Delphi mailing list -> [email protected] http://www.elists.org/mailman/listinfo/delphi
