Abnormal Program Termination Error
I have built my program in release mode, and used install shield to create an install program. It will run fine on my machine but when I install it on other machines and go to run part of the program I get "Abnormal Program Termination Error". The program is an email program and I get the error when I try to send a message.
Any ideas
Thanks

is it a crash if so do you have a source address or a call stack that leads to the crash ?
You can use Drwatson to give you a call stack.

I am not sure how to use Drwatson to give a call stack, or what the difference is between a crash or a call stack.

at the command prompt type 'drwatson' or 'drwtsn32' if on NT.
wait for crash
look in log files drwatson.log or drwtsn32.log at the crash location and the relating call stack.

Sorry MDarling, my mistake in accepting you comment, no I did not find the solution yet, still working on it.

For ShaunWilde, do you mean a system crash. My system does not crash the program crashes, the system is fine.

I typed in drwatson but I do not get any log files for this.

I just checked the error and it is a debug error, maybe that makes a difference. I also get the error if I use the release version.

did you run drwatson and then your app
your app crashed - but your drwatson did not report any problems?
Is this what you are saying?

Yes, I ran drwatson and then my application, but there were nor problems reported by drwatson. That is correct
