What do you mean by "load a disk"? http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/w...a61c0ea?auth=1 OK, now we're getting closer. The error shows up when an Autodata CD is loaded. (Note - the pcadvisor site is just USENET leeching, and you could find this on Google Groups too.) 'Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library Runtime Error!' http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/forum/hel...errors-368280/ Usually, the runtime library is a set (one or more) of DLLs used in Visual Studio. Some developers are stupid enough to not include the DLLs, or even the "vcredist" which contains them. In other cases, maybe a patched set is needed (as occasionally there is a security update for them). I seem to remember the Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer told me to patch certain ones. You can install them globally in the OS, but a program can keep its own private (unpatched) ones in the program directory. Between the program and the DLLs, there is some disagreement. Not all errors like this, occur at the same offset, but I figured in this case, I would get a match in a search engine, and that's how I zeroed in on "Autodata CD". Posting the details is very important, and now it would help to verify this is your problem. And while you're at it, take a look at the folder containing the Autodata EXE file that is trying to execute. You've probably installed this somewhere (hopefully Program Files area), and there will be an EXE plus a bunch of DLLs. This is how the DLLs get delivered to people who don't have them. There are many different releases, and a program wants a specific set. So you can't just grab this one. This is only an example of one, and may not be appropriate to your situation. The downloads all tend to have the same name, so I have more than one of these in my Downloads folder :-) https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/down....aspx?id=40784 Some examples of names of the DLL files. But not really an exhaustive set of names. https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8kche8ah.aspx So that's sorta the orbit, but not an answer as such. I wasn't able to find a definition for the error 217, and only one thread had anything remotely close to a solution. "fixed it.. had to set the language to english" In one other thread, it sorta looked like a locale issue as well. The search engine didn't find me any "tasty" articles with technical stuff in it. And I don't wanna make suggestions like "turn your PC off and on again". We don't do that here :-) The company that makes the software, doesn't look like the type that "provides support to end users". They just want to sell stuff. http://autodata-group.com/global/ http://www.autodatapubs.com/ Not looking good so far. Paul |

There is something wrong with the Visual Studio DLLs. The program you are running, has some problem when it loaded "helper" DLLs from Visual Studio. I think the idea is, there is a program running on your PC already, that reads the CD for the data contents on it ? Is that what is on the CD ? Or does the program run directly off the CD ? Is the CD supposed to be "installed" by the user, or does the program already live in "Program Files" ? Installing a vcredist into the OS, can sometimes fix this, but I haven't a clue which ones this program is looking for. Paul |

I think we are having our collective legs pulled. This "guy" makes vague, nonsensical statements, and when asked for clarification, he responds with even more nonsense. Smells like "troll" to me. |
