Dear helpers,

Visual Studio 2008 generated PRJ0002 when compiling a release version under Windows XP. Then downloaded Visual Studio 2017 and got successfully a 32-bit debug version running. A 64-bit version failed because the "__asm" keyword wasn't supported! A release version was (un)successfully created because... My program is due to my (old) job as a math teacher and should both explain and solve all mathematical problems from 12-18 year high school students: expansion, factorization, equation, inequality, differentiation, integration and differential equations. My most important test is the execution of all (nearly 6000) exercises coming with the executable. Now I am to explain the failure: the debug and release versions will NOT solve all 6000 exercises exactly in the same way: the debug version doesn't generate any error but the release version will be sometimes correct, sometimes incorrect, sometimes absent and sometimes causing a runtime error! I can't understand because the relevant code is absolutely equal. AND I CAN'T DEBUG THE RELEASE VERSION! The output in the Outputwindow in the release version is 2-3 times as large as in the debug version! I don't understand any of this extra output! In the debug version this output is limited to (senseless) warnings 4302 and 4312 due to "/W3" in the (compiler-?)commandline. For PRJ0002 there doesn't seem any solution: none of the solutions mentioned in the forums solved my problem and I tried of course all of them! I remain yours truly desperate
