Access violation at address 00401F34 in module "RockWorks15.exe"

[Guest Molly]

A customer saw the following error immediately when he used Project | Open to open an existing project in RockWorks15:

Access violation at address 00401F34 in module "RockWorks15.exe".

Read of Address FFFFFFFC

There was no Bug Report to indicate the specific problem with the database load.

We were able to solve the problem by following these steps:

1. Make a copy of the whole project folder somewhere on the computer or network. Never hurts.

2. Use Windows Explorer to rename that project folder's "System" sub-folder to "System_old".

3. Back in RockWorks, select Project | Open to try opening that project folder again.

4. You'll be presented with the Create New Project dialog. Just click OK and the previous database should load, with all data intact.
