The only help I can offer is that when debugging (in IDE) Delphi traps all
exceptions unfortunately if the exception comes from outside the program
(normally Windows or some library) Delphi sometimes makes a mistake as to
what it was (and where it come from).
Another clue is the resource ID (11036)
