Errors when Report is generated in C# with setup file

Alok Sinha

I have created a software using C# 2003 and SQL Server 2000 with crystal Report.

Software is working fine in IDE [Development mode].

But when a setup file is created and executed on the same machine, it works fine except generating report. At the end of the program when report is generated, it displays the following error messages

An unhandled exception has occurred in your application. if you click continue, the application will ignore the error and attempt to continue. If you click quit, the application will be shut down immediately.

Length cannot be less than zero. Parameter name: length.

In Details its showing:

System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Length cannot be less than zero.

Parameter name: length

The most likely casue is that your program is getting an error that your program is ignoring so the programn continues executing until it gets a more serious error. You should look at all your source code and add code to check for errors wherever there is a possiblity for errors. Even if you modify your program in places that are not causing the problem, it is productive to have code to check for errors and that exits the program gracefully with a useful error message.
