That's helpful, thanks (The same goes for Alex's response). I'm currently dealing with a series of intermittent .ocx errors that seem to be memory related, but never output any useful debugging information. I'm trying various memory management strategies, and though they keep popping up they're at least not as frequent anymore.
If anyone else has run into them and found ways of debugging/resolving them, I'd be very grateful for your insight.
