When a procedure is called, the return address is put on the stack. Also all
local variables are on the stack. The size of the stack is limited. A stack
overflow means that a procedure is about to be called but there is no space
on the stack. Usually this is due to a bug (e.g. recursive procedure calls).
Open the callstack window and have a look what causes the exception.

When/where do you get this error?

Re: stackoverflow

Hi Sjoerd,

I have had the same error. My problem was that something was looping.
module 1 calls module 2 and module 2 calls module 1.

Maybe is that your problem too.

succes.

Re: stackoverflow

Hi
The fastest way to get a stack overflow is calling the callerroutine itself
withouth controling the end
\\\\
private sub looper()
dim a as integer = 2
do until a = 1
looper()
loop
end sub
////

Why not:

Private Sub Looper
Looper()
End Sub

?
