Steve,
I had this very same problem not that long ago. The problem seems to
be something in the .cfg file. I went through umpteen re-installs and other
trials trying to solve the problem but it only went away when I deleted all
non-essential files including the .cfg file. At the time Protel had no ideas
why but they were interested in my file to investigate, I don't know if they
found anything or if tech support could interest a programmer in looking at
the issue at that time.
When you state that the old and new cfg files were the same, did you
base that on a binary comparison or a text comparison? It could be something
that doesn't show as text.
Sincerely,
Brad Velander.

> Hi,
>
> I was trying to generate a Bill of Material (BOM) report
> for a schematic and got:
>
> "An EAccess Violation error occurred in BOMDLL.DLL"
>
> This is not a new schematic. I had generated BOMs before
> with no problems.

> I have 99SE with SP6. The schematic is in a MS Access
> Database format and is in one of 10 folders under the
> Documents folder. As you can see there are 10 different

> Fix-
> After several try's including rebooting, and repairing the
> database with no results, I created a new folder and copied
> the schematic only over to the new folder. I then ran the
> BOM report with no problems. I compared the .cfg in each folder
> and they are identical. I then copied everything else in the
> old folder to the new folder except the schematic, .cfg, and
> BOM. I ran the BOM report again with no problems. I tried
> the original folders schematic again and still got the error.
> Any ideas on what is causing this?
