>From this I can say two things.
1. It is a nil pointer reference - 2F8 is the offset - so it is quite a
large object/array/record (Offset760).
2. Create a map file for the executable. From this you can find the actual
method where the AV happened.

I suspect from the address given, that the application has not been loaded
at a different base address.
Knowing the actual method may not help, you may need a stack trace instead.
So as mentioned last week get one of the good AV trappers that will output
you a stack trace eg www.madshi.net

Subject: [DUG] Making use of AV error messages


Hi

I have a site where my app is installed on a Server along with it's
database.  Various 
workstations have short cuts defined that point to this single instance of
the app on 
the server.

The app is running fine on several desktop PC's.  They have recently tried
to run it 
from a Laptop and get an (AV) error message as it starts up, and after that
it runs 
wonkily, throwing other errors.  (The first Laptop they tried was XP - then
they tried a 
second that was running Win2K Pro and was in all other respects a virgin ie
no 
Norton or anything).

The first message is
"Access violation at address 00691A42 in Module 'PSLog.exe' Read of
address 000002F8 "

I would like to use this message to try to home in on what might be causing
the 
errors - but have never (ever) done any debugging at this level.

Is it possible that I could be "talked through" whatever is necessary, or is
that to big 
an ask?  It would need to be a a very basic level.

Mark
