Description:
Occurred in reaction to a UI event. I was adding relationships to existing fields on the EER diagram. Dump info:

Exception = System.AccessViolationException
Message = Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.
FullText = System.AccessViolationException: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.

How to repeat:
Don't know how to repeat except to try adding relationships to existing fields on an EER diagram.

Thank you for the problem report. What exact data types referencing and referenced columns have?
[31 Mar 2010 4:02] CPK Smithies
The link types were:

SMALLINT(3) /* in one case */
CHAR(30) /* mostly */
VARCHAR(30/40) /* in one case */

Yes, in one case, the referencing link was VARCHAR(40) whilst the referenced primary key was VARCHAR(30).

Hope this helps!

Oh and I should note that on a subsequent edit, the EER diagram was completed OK, despite the mismatch in referencing/referenced types.

Please, check if this problem is repeatable with a newer version, 5.2.19.
