What code do you have? Could you maybe post the form_load or sub main (whichever you use) of your code so you can point out exactly where the error occurs?

Thanks all for the replies. I discovered the problem today. Just FYI, The startup location of the opening form was set to 0,0 and the values were carried in integer variables. These values are also stored in the registry when the application is installed. What caused the problem is that the user had minimized the application and then closed it from the task bar. This writes to the registry the values 480000,480000 for startup location. Obviously, since those values were being stuffed into an integer variable upon the next startup....Houston we have a problem.
Thanks Again All |
