Finding some crash information on a non-msdev computer

[mankeyrabbit]

Hi,
I'm beta testing my application at the moment, and am having some crashes on my betatester's computer. The problem is that he doesnt have MSDEV, and win32 doesnt give me any information to go on as to where the crash was. My question is, is there any way I can find out anything about an error (line, file, etc) without a debug environment installed?

Thanks for any responses.

Try searching the internet for "Release mode debugging with VC++". This is an article i recently found about the subject.

You can either use remote debugging, or a map file for that.

guys,

thanks a lot for the links. I had searched, but obviously not with the right keywords! Cheers, I've fixed the major problem.
