    I have an app that has worked for YEARS. Flawlessly. It does a lot of file processing. On my laptop, it fails to open certain files. I catch the exception, and the reason is 0 (no error). My laptop - W7 Pro. My laptop Xp Pro VM: fail. On the "golden" laptop, it works fine. Xp Pro. Assorted other machines - fail. I copied the source from the golden machine, built it, FAIL. Copied the binary off the golden machine to mine: FAIL. ----- The only wildcard I can think of is that some update has broken something, but that is surely digging deep. ------ Any wild ass ideas or random thoughts?

    I would attempt to create a separate application that does nothing but open the file in question. Build upon that until the problem re-appears.
