Looks like you are somehow skipping the crt init. Are you statically linked
to the crt lib and linked /noentry?

Hey guys,

I have narrowed down the location of the exception....it is occurring within
a method call within
the strtok function:

Within strtok.c, there is a call like the following:

_ptiddata ptd = _getptd();

then, within the _getptd() method (tidtable.c), we have this:

_ptiddata __cdecl _getptd (void)
{
   _ptiddata ptd;
   DWORD TL_LastError;

   TL_LastError = GetLastError();
   if ( (ptd = FLS_GETVALUE(__tlsindex)) == NULL )
   {
     .
     .
   }
.
.
.
}
The exception occurs within the "if" statement and I can't seem to step in
any further.
Any ideas.....
Thanks
Paul
