Might be a problem in a unit initialization. Do a Build all and then
run the program outside the IDE (Shift-Ctrl-F12). Do you get an
exception dialog this way?

Hi,
I have a fairly large application written in Delphi7. I have ported it to 
Delphi 2007 and fixed a few problems concerning formless Quickreports, but 
nothing much else.

The application compiles without warnings, but when I try to run it, it 
halts and displays a green line at the "begin" in the project file
(why?). 
If I press F7, it crashes in the Application.initialize, opens the unit? CPU 
and proudly displays an access violation in some "push esi" assembler
line.

- Very nice, but does this leave me with any clue as to what may be wrong?

Hi,
Ahah! - The application could be started outside the IDE albeit with an 
exception stating that "class TPieSeries could not be found". This
quickly 
lead me to the problem, namely a TChart component that somehow did not 
behave well after the transition to Delphi 2007. I replaced the component in 
the IDE and now the application runs fine.
Thank you!
Claus
