Access violation in P2BBDE.DLL error

[mthakershi]

Hi Friends,
I am using Paradox, BDE and Borland C++ on one project. And I am getting 'Access violation in P2BBDE.DLL at some read address' error when I try to do database operation that involves large amount of data.

I found solution for this on Crystal Report website. They have 132 KB P2BBDE.DLL and they say it won't give this error. I tried that. It still gives same error.

Then I tried something weird. I copied PDBBDE.DLL (16 bit) in C:\WINNT\CRYSTAL folder That error was no more. I know this is not the way to solve it. I can't manipulate Crystal DLL like this from my installation. Sometimes it works and sometimes it does not. And if I do this windows installer starts from my program and that is ridiculous.

If someone has faced this problem before then please help me. I need to resolve this issue as soon as possible.

Any help or suggestion is appreciated,

Good news!!!

I was able to nail down this error. There was a problem with Paradox table. Table being used in that report had a field of type - 'AUTOINC'. As soon as I removed this field and incremented it manually, the error disappeared. Definitely the performance is not good but still I am able to put my components in production.

Thanks for answering my questions. I hope this helps victims in future.
