Plus a lot of bug error at the begging.

Please help. Thank you.

An access violation can be almost anything going wrong, quite often using a pointer that is NULL (ie. zero). One way of tracing the problem is to use gdb (GNU debugger) to find *which* pointer is NULL. Search this forum for other posts about gdb, I think I did an example of deliberately setting a pointer NULL to demonstrate the technique.
