WordArt: Visio Caused a General Protection (GP) Fault in OLE2PROX.DLL

 * }

Q138035

-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft WordArt, versions 2.0, 3.0
 * Microsoft Publisher versions 2.0, 2.0a, 3.0

-

SYMPTOMS
When you edit a WordArt object that has been pasted on top of a Visio 3.0a object, you receive the following error message

Visio caused a GPF in OLE2PROX.DLL at 0003:4285

when you click the Close button.

CAUSE
Microsoft Publisher and WordArt are communicating through lightweight remote procedure calls (LRPC). The dynamic link library (DLL) file responsible for this communication is OLE2PROX.DLL. When OLE2PROX.DLL is trying to order conversations between the container (Publisher) and the server (WordArt), the pasted object from Visio interferes with the routing of these messages and the error message is displayed.

STATUS
This behavior does not occur in Visio version 4.0.
