Error Base/1098 in Windows XP

[SWDX]

I have a Clipper application that gives me an error in Windows XP. The error is "Error Base/1098 Argument error: VAL".

In Windows 95 I had a PIF that would reboot in DOS mode to avoid this error, however, XP does not seem to give me that option. Any ideas?

I'm just guessing, but this looks like it is coming from the error system--something triggered an error that hit the errsys as a Nil or numeric argument to the Val() function. If the program works in W95, perhaps a recursive call because of configuration problems or...

Do you have the source code or are you just trying to make the exe work with XP?

We need more details in order to help you.

I am trying to make the exe work actually. However I also have the source code. The problem is we no longer have anyone who has programmed in clipper, so I am not sure we can even recompile the program correctly again.
