PRJ98: Crash When Starting MS Project from Another Program (188798)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Project 98 for Windows
This article was previously published under Q188798 SYMPTOMS
When you use Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications to start Microsoft
Project 98 from another program, you may receive either of the following
error messages:
In Windows 95
This program has performed an illegal operation
and will be shut down.
If the problem persists, contact the program vendor.
When you click Details, you receive the following message:
WINPROJ caused an invalid page fault in
module WINPROJ.EXE at <address>
In Windows NT
An application error has occurred
and an application error log is being generated.
WINPROJ.EXE
Exception: access violation <number>, Address: <address>.
CAUSE
This problem may occur when you start Microsoft Project 98 from a Visual
Basic for Applications macro, and Microsoft Project 98 generates an error
message while it is opening.
NOTE: The errors that cause this behavior are generally system error
messages rather than messages that occur when opening a project.
RESOLUTION
To correct this problem, install Microsoft Project 98 for Windows Service
Release 1 (SR-1).
To temporarily work around this behavior if you do not have SR-1, follow
these steps:
- Start Microsoft Project 98.
- Note the error that is displayed.
- Correct the issue that is causing the error.
- When the error no longer occurs you can start Microsoft Project 98
from another program without crashing.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products
listed at the beginning of this article.
This problem was corrected in Microsoft Project 98 for Windows, Service
Release 1 (SR-1).
For additional information about obtaining and installing SR-1, please
