This happened when you were exporting from Rhino - I have only ever found it to mean that the machine has run out of memory. Technically, an SEH (i.e. 'Structured Exception Handling') exception occurs when an error happens below the .NET Framework, and for which it has no more specific error information to report.

thanks JD

You think I will get the same error if I try using the 64 bit rhino?... Or does it mean I have to put more memory on my computer?

thanks again.

From the error report, it looks like you have 16GB installed (could be incorrect though - is it?), and if so then, running Rhino 5 x64 should definitely take care of the problem.
