SYMPTOMS
========
When obtaining multiple references to an object in the Project.Files collection,
you may receive the error message:
OLE Exception error: Exception code c0000005. OLE object may be corrupt.

4 is to refer to the objects in the Files collection by number instead of name.
The following code does not produce the exception error in Visual Studio Service
Pack 3 and earlier:
*Start of Code
MODIFY PROJECT proj1 NOWAIT NOSHOW
loFile = Application.ActiveProject.Files(1)
? VARTYPE(loFile) && Should be "O" for object
RELEASE loFile
loFile = Application.ActiveProject.Files(1)
*End of Code
