; error: Exception occurred: 0xC0000005 (Access Violation)

Any ideas on why I get the following error during the execution of an
Autolisp routine?

; error: Exception occurred: 0xC0000005 (Access Violation)
; warning: unwind skipped on exception
; error: Exception occurred: 0xC0000005 (Access Violation)

 

I usually see this when I'm attempting to use vlax-* on an Object that
hasn't been properly initialized, or doesn't support the method I'm
attempting to execute. Are you attempting something like this and if so what
Object type are you trying to: access, modifiy, add, delete . . ..

It's a database connectivity error.
I've never seen an instance where reinstalling MDAC 2.8 didn't fix it.

Download MDAC from Microsoft here:

Have you either altered anything in the register
OR
Run a reg cleaning program such as Vcom FixIT utilities - System registry -
registry fixer - as I found out these programs pick up AutoCAD's registry
entries as invalid. When there run you need to actively instruct the program
to associated the reg entry with the respective AutoCAD files deleting the
registry entries causes all kinds of errors including this one to be
displayed
