Hi,
First, are you using 3.2 or 3.1 and which version numbers? 3.2 is the 32bit
version, and has not been out for 6 months.
In any case, I have 3.1 v4. I'm not going to use 3.2 until beta testing is
done. ALL of my niche market programs occassionally give the message
"illegal call" or something like that. It comes with windows 95 or NT. I
even get it sometimes in Word95 and Excel. I get it a lot in MathCad, and
in various screenwriting (films) programs I have.
SOMETIMES this is due to a bad end of file marker, and the only way to
correct it is to redo the file. In the case of OT this would be the stock
file you were working on, which is an mdb file (Access). Only rarely have I
had to reinstall the software. In the case of OT, I've never had to
reinstall the software. I just reboot. (the whole machine, so that the
registry resets itself).
OT gets blamed for a lot, but my thought is that in this case, the fault is
more likely elsewhere.
my two cents.
