The meaning of Runtime Error 217
70 comments. Current rating: 
(15 votes). Leave comments and/ or rate it.
The online help that comes with Delphi lists "control-C-exit" as the reason for a runtime error 217, here a listing of Delphi 3 Runtime Errors:
STATUS_FLOAT_DIVIDE_BY_ZERO: 200;
STATUS_INTEGER_DIVIDE_BY_ZERO: 200;
STATUS_ARRAY_BOUNDS_EXCEEDED: 201;
STATUS_STACK_OVERFLOW: 202;
STATUS_FLOAT_OVERFLOW: 205;
STATUS_FLOAT_UNDERFLOW,
STATUS_FLOAT_DENORMAL_OPERAND: 206;
STATUS_FLOAT_INEXACT_RESULT,
STATUS_FLOAT_INVALID_OPERATION,
STATUS_FLOAT_STACK_CHECK: 207;
STATUS_INTEGER_OVERFLOW: 215;
STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION: 216;
STATUS_CONTROL_C_EXIT: 217;
STATUS_PRIVILEGED_INSTRUCTION: 218;
In the case of 217, this listing is wrong.
In fact, Delphi executables will die with runtime error 217 when an exception was raised before SysUtils is initialized or after it is finalized. In both situations the regular exception handling is not put in place.
If the error occurs right at your application's startup, check your initialization sections. Try to move code into a later part, e.g. into FormCreate() events.
Otherwise check your units' finalization sections.
Some typical situations where this can happen:
- unexpected date formats
- disk or registry accesses where the user has not sufficient privileges
- BDE Net Dir mismatches

I get this error a lot when I close IE windows, but it also happens sometimes with others windows. If I just click ok, ok, then system keeps running (though I will still get the errors later on too). If I click cancel, and I click cancel a couple of times in the future while the system is still running, the system will eventually freeze.
Above is FYI but also - any ideas? | ||

(runtime error 217 at 02b1fca) a friend is having this code everytime he tries to open an internet explorer window so at this point he can not access the internet. He is not very technically inclined and he lives in another state. He can access MSN messanger though, so nothing wrong with the connection. Please email if you know how to fix this.

Same boat here. Runtime error 217 when closing some Windoze windows. I'm wondering if this isn't relative to a driver ? Specifically the ATI Catalyst driver manager.
Custom System Specs : AMD64 3000+ Socket 754 proc. Epox 8NPA Sli NF4 motherboard 1GB GEIL RAM ATI X600 256MB video card running dual monitors Hercules Fortissimo II sound card M-Audio 2496 Delta sound card Logitech key trackball Microsoft Multimedia Natural keyboard Fresh installation of MS Windows XP SP2 w/all updates installed. Running MS Office 2003 (v.11) with all patches installed which brings it to MS Word Build 8106 and Outlook Build 8010. Note that I've been having these same errors for some time but as they aren't critical I've been just ignoring them. Prior to the current system/build I had the same errors on WinXP SP2 and Win2K Pro SP4 on the MSI NF3 motherboard as well so I doubt it's OS or chipset related. I'm really thinking it has something to do with MS Office and the ATI drivers but have nothing solid to base that opinion on. | ||

From the last communication I have had NO problems when I close foxmail5..but a hint here..I am using foxmail 6 over it...Foxmail 6 is a chinese version...Open it and install it...then go into directory and delete the chinese bak file and then it turns into English..yeehaw So there seems to be NO conflict now? | ||
