I have a visual basic 6.0 program on our network that
checks for updates to the Access FE. If a new FE exists,
it is copied to the users local drive. This program has
been in use for about 6 months with no problems. However,
yesterday the exe file became corrupted twice. The users
received the following error message.

The NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal instruction.
CS:0000 IP:0353 OP:f0 2b 8d 00 f0 Choose 'Close' to
terminate the application.

Does anyone know what might be causing this corruption?
Thanks!

Here are a couple of references from Support.Microsoft.Com:

These may or may not apply to your situation. Have you also posted your
question to one of the Visual Basic News Groups? There may be more help
there.

Cheryl,

Thanks for the response. I read these articles previously
and I don't think they apply. My VB app is 32-bit vs 16-
bit. I will also post the question in the VB forum as you
suggested. Thanks.
