Hi folks,
Has anyone encountered the wierd SEHException when using
Application.EnableVisualStyles();
Application.DoEvents();
at the start of an app and then using the PropertyGrid control?
I've Googled and found many threads making the link between these two, but no real solution.
If I have to use a manifest file instead, will that still cause the error?
Any additional info would be welcome.

I'm not so sure about that particular error, but I've found EnableVisualStyles to be very buggy in general. I've had much more luck just using a manifest file.

You will probably have better luck using the manifest approach. There are a number of different issues that arise when using Application.EnableVisualStyles that often aren't seen when using the manifest file.
One other nice thing about the manifest approach is that if you have any future problems (and let's hope you don't) you can always just delete the manifest file and you wouldn't have to recompile your application. -
Where are you calling those functions? I've seen this problem go away when I call them in Main, just before Application.Run

We just went through this yesterday. We were getting an error with EnableVisualStyles so we went with the manifest. So far we have not had any problems.
