We have a Delphi app that performs user authentication using the activeds.dll library. However, when running on a 64-bit server, even though the WOW64 processing thunks the library to use the psuedo-32-bit version, we're consistently getting an app crash when attempting to use the library. Any helpful suggestions? Thanks
