Hello

We are facing a problem with MSVCRT.DLL
Our application runs fine with MSVCRT.DLL on WIN2K without SP2.but when SP2 is loaded it gives a error. "ACCESS VIOLATION"

Now we have researched it as to why this error occurs and finally we concluded the best option to finish it off was to ship the MSVCRT.DLL of the WIN2K without service pack2 with the application.
We have come across a article in MSDN stating

"In the event that another application installs a new version of a component on the system, the application's version of that component will remain untouched, since you installed it into your application directory. Your application continues to use the same version of the component that you shipped with your application, while the other application uses its version. The operating system can load both versions in memory at once."

Would anybody help us as to how can we load both versions of the DLL's at the same time.

Please explain it step by step.

Awaiting your reply

regards
Kiran
