SYMPTOMS
While you apply an Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations (XSLT) style sheet to transform an XML document, an  element exception may occur. After a random number of successful transformations, when you try to handle such an exception, you may receive an access violation error message that is similar to the following:

Unhandled exception at 0x69b2381a in Transform.exe: 0xC0000005:

Access violation reading location 0x00000020.

Note You receive this error message only when the following conditions are true:
 * You use the transform method of an XSLT processor to apply the XSLT style sheets.
 * You set the terminate attribute of the  element to yes.
