Thanks Hay.
No, I've tried that and a ton of other connection strings. I have a simple exe that just calls SQLSTRINGCONNECT using the contents of a text file as the connection string. That way I can change the connection string however many times I'd like to try to find something that didn't pitch the C0000005 error.
I've tried on a couple of different computers as well.
This stemmed from an application that started crashing when an update to the Client Access ODBC driver occurred. It is very reproducible with simple steps. I was hoping someone out there had seen this issue already.
Thanks,
George
