Hi,
I am debugging a program. It creates a process and read another file from hard drive write it in the newly created process. It uses readprocessmemory function. I can set regular breakpoint on that line. I want to see who else is accessing that memory. But I am not be able to set "memory on access" BP. OllyDbg is not opening a dialog to set a breakpoint.

I appreciate any help.

Thanks

Problem occurs with old olly installations, get a fresh copy of olly and it should solve the problem.

SiGiNT,
thanks for the reply. I have version 1.1 downloaded few days back from ollydbg.de. Can you tell me what is the latest version and where can I get it.

Thanks

See this thread - http://www.woodmann.com/forum/showthread.php?t=9189

My favorite is Shadow's version.

Have you tried the same breakpoint functionality on a harmless test program first? Your target might very well contain anti-debugging tricks that clear your breakpoints before they get the chance to break...

Are you running on Win9x?

I know that breakpoints can't be set in kernel memory, but don't know about memory on access... might be somewhat the same problem.

ORRR? maybe it's not writing, try access instead.
