PUB: Page Fault Inserting ClipArt with Very Long File Name

Q138359

--------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Publisher for Windows 95, version 3.0
 - Microsoft ClipArt Gallery for Windows 95, version 2.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When you add a picture file with a very long file name (over 250
characters) to Microsoft ClipArt Gallery 2.0, and you then insert it into a
publication, you may receive either of the following error messages:

   Windows 95
   ----------

      This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut
      down.

   If you click the details button, you may see an error similar to the
   following:

      ARTGALRY caused an invalid page fault in module KERNEL32.DLL at
      0137:bff76592.

   Windows NT 3.51
   ---------------

      Cannot save object.

   An OLE server cannot save an object you are using. Windows may be low
   on memory or disk space, or the object may not be registered
   correctly. Publisher restored the last saved changes to this object.

RESOLUTION
==========

To resolve this problem, try either of the following methods.

Method 1: Import the file into Publisher by clicking Picture File on the
          Insert menu (instead of by clicking ClipArt on the Insert menu).

Method 2: Shorten the name of the graphic file and add it to ClipArt
          Gallery again.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed
at the beginning of this article.

MORE INFORMATION
================

You will also be unable to insert this graphic as a ClipArt Gallery object
into other applications such as Microsoft Word, Microsoft PowerPoint and
Microsoft Excel. However, the exact error messages and symptoms will
vary.
