>If I have a desktop application and I need to close it, I call the Close() method. But, since two years, on occasional basis, when we call that method, this generates an unknown exception in memory. This is very difficult to troubleshoot as I haven't found yet the way to simulate that.

When I programatically send a message to the application so it will close itself, this is usually done three levels down the hierarchy of the program operations. Thus, it is one method calling another calling another. I have been wondering if calling Close() from three levels deep could have such an impact.

I would create a Close Event and have the main app listen for that .... don't know if the calling hierarchy is causing a problem or not..
