Details
For each address that seems to be invalid, the object where this address reference was found is shown. The object is shown as a link. If you click on it, the designer points to the object in your design and opens the properties dialog of that object.Often, also free variables ("Free Global and Namespace Variables") are shown, because they have not yet been defined by a call to SET_PARAMETER. If that is the case, the variable itself is probably correct. Check again after the application has run for some time.
