Hello,
Regular exceptions, those raised with the "raise" keyword are always
trapped by try..except blocks but you have to make sure that EVERY
method in the DLL that is called by the host exe has such a construct so
as not to let the exception escape.
However, there are exceptions that come from the FPU and that arise when
doing floating point maths. Those, in a DLL, are not trapped by the
try..except blocks and are passed back to the host exe, effectively
crashing them.
If you want to trap them, you have to add a special unit in your DLL
project, as explained in this issue:

Look for the last comment, it works fine here
