Hi,

I have some C Files and Header Files and some library files using which I have created a DLL in the Release mode(By changing some settings according to my needs) of Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition.

Actually Iam not aware of the complete functionality of the C files that I am using. I compiled the code and it created an dll. I have an EXE file from Vendor which will inturn refernce to the dll which i created.

When I ran the EXE file it was throwing an exception while referencing to my dll. I need to know in which part of my C code is the reason for this Exception so that I can make changes to that part.

Please advice how to resolve this Problem.

Thanks,
Sn

Use your debugger and step through the code checking the values of all variables as you go. When the exception occurs you should have a complete audit trail to show what is happening.
