Arithmatic Overflow Exception

[iasaghar]

hi,

I am currently facing a problem that is when I compile my project i get an exception of Design.dll or Arithmatic overflow exception.


This same project is working fine with 0 bug and no exception,
then it just started throwing exceptions.

The current solution which i use is to fresh the whole installation of my machine (windows and all othor softwares) and it works.

Visual Studio 2003 is installed on my machine.

I will appreciate any help in this regard.

Thanks,

Izhar Ahmad

If we talk about small project plz attach the same ... i will take a look
However, i prefer not guessing. Btw, to be sure what is the causer of an exception is not possible without first see the code.

Regards


Wellcome to the forum

simple question: are you using VS2002 (VB2002) ?

if so you might want to consider upgrading
i only say this because this seems to happen a lot with people who are using the 2002 verison, it doesnt seem to happen in 2003 (and i hope not in 2005)

If error message is: Overflow or Underflow in Arithmetic Operation, this might help: http://vbdotnetforums.com/showthread.php?t=3817

It might have been solved or not... but upgrading is costly. And if I am building an app currently with VB2003, I cannot simply upgrade it to VB2005. I exprienced the trouble twice... first when we upgraded Crystal Report and second when we upgraded MySQL. We had to do a lot of extra works...

that's why i said "you might want to consider upgrading" i worded it that way because i'm aware that .net is costly
