Does it work if you check the ignore exception check box and the 
continue running the program?  Wing IDE (both 1.1 & 2.0) cannot detect 
when certain exceptions will be caught in C code so certain ones need to 
be ignored.  The list of ignored exceptions is retained in the project 
file, so you should only need to choose to ignore the exception once if 
you're using a project.
