/*File:  Errors02.cpp
This C++ program illustrates a runtime error
when an attempt is made to divide a number by
zero.

This program compiles with no problems using
VS 6.0.  However, when the program is run either
from within VS 6.0, or from a command prompt,
a Windows message appears to the effect that
an error has occurred, an error message has
been generated, and permission is requested to
send the error message to Microsoft.
