SYMPTOMS
If you try to delete multiple columns from a Microsoft Graph file that is embedded in a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation slide, you may receive the following error message:

CiceroUIWndFrame: GRAPH.EXE - Application Error

The instruction at  referenced memory at. The memory could not be written.

If PowerPoint stops responding (hangs) and you press CTRL+ALT+DEL to quit PowerPoint, you may receive the following application error message:

  AppName: Graph.exe    AppVer: 10.0.2602.0   ModName: Mso.dll ModVer: 10.0.3311.0  Offset:0001c468

AppName: Excel.exe   AppVer: 10.0.4109.0   ModName: Excel.dll ModVer: 10.0.3501.0  Offset: 0043b8b2

AppName: Excel.exe   AppVer: 10.0.4109.0   ModName: Excel.dll ModVer: 10.0.4109.0  Offset: 000098b3

AppName: Excel.exe   AppVer: 10.0.4109.0   ModName: Excel.dll ModVer: 10.0.4109.0  Offset: 000620af

AppName: Excel.exe   AppVer: 10.0.4109.0   ModName: Excel.dll ModVer: 10.0.4109.0  Offset: 002a8ead



CAUSE
This problem may occur after you delete a column from the datasheet because the data structure of the datasheet is checked for possible compaction to reduce the memory used. When you delete many columns in quick succession, memory clean up does not occur as expected. The memory manager eventually corrupts the memory heap for Microsoft Graph and causes PowerPoint 2002 to stop responding.
