Re: GetTitle causing access violations.

[User (Legacy)]

I've been referred to that knowledge base article before, but it really 

doesn't address the problem at hand. I'm not having any problems reading 

data out of the chart and the values I extract are exactly what I expect. 

What's causing the access violation is if I try to write a new title into 

the chart AFTER extracting the old one. 

Example: 

// Put in a title 

pChart->Title[CHART_BOTTOMTIT] = "abc";    // fine 

// Now copy it out (code copied from knowledge base.) 

char s[256], *sp; 

sp = s; 

sp = pChart->Title[CHART_BOTTOMTIT];     // fine. results ok. 

pChart->Title[CHART_BOTTOMTIT] = "def";  // Access violation here. 

I've tried several permutations, including loading the titles into character 

arrays and passing them as char* 's, but it makes no difference. I noticed 

that I can assign as many different titles as I want BEFORE extracting the 

title and the access violation does not occur (and, as expected, the most 

recently assigned title is that one that is extracted.) It never fails, 

however,  that if I try to assign a title after I have previously extracted 

it, I get an access violation from inside the chart object. Is there some 

sort of "reset" function I need to call on titles?
