C0000005 Fatal error exception code

[MyNeckHurts]

We recently upgraded to windows 2000 5.00.2195 SP 2 and have been getting the following exception code error C0000005. So far the error has been trapped and the call chain ends when the code hits:

if sqlExec( gnConnectionHandle, lcSql ) < 1
handleError( program(), lineNo( 1 ), .t. )
llAbort = .t.
exit
endIf
or
if SqlExec(gnConnectionHandle, lcInsertDML) < 1
llReturn = .f.
handleError( program(), lineNo(), .t. )
exit
endIf

I checked with the DBA for time out settings on the Oracle database and was told time out is set to off. We have been using this same application for over a year with OS win 98 and never encountered this problem. The only other change we have made is to the Oracle client which was an upgrade to 8.1.7 (from 8.1.6). Once the fatal error has fired the application quits. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks

Do you have a printer installed in the system? My programs bomb every time if a printer is not installed. Otherwise, try a reindex and pack.

Check up on microsoft.com.... there are several different situations that cause that same error. Some are known bugs and are fixed in later versions.

The computers are mapped to network printers and they seem to be working properly. I'm using the latest VFP version 6.0 SP 5 which is the last patch I see for this VFP version. Thanks
