Thanks for your suggestion Lawrence but I don't think it's related to
the problem.

I added the following after opening the file but it doesn't throw (since
the file is valid):
     if( !file.is_open() )
          throw std::exception("Unable to open file");

To prove that the file is valid:
     1) I verified that the program creates the file
     2) main() completes as expected.

The following is in regard to Rush's comment:

The call stack when trouble occurs is as follows:
     msvcr71d.dll!operator delete(void * pUserData=0x00343418)
     msvcp71d.dll!std::allocator<char>::deallocate(char *
_Ptr=0x00343418, unsigned int __formal=48)
     msvcp71d.dll!std::string::_Tidy(bool _Built=true, unsigned int
_Newsize=0)
     msvcp71d.dll!std::string::~string()
     TestsD.exe!$E2()
     msvcr71d.dll!doexit(int code=0, int quick=0, int retcaller=0)
     msvcr71d.dll!exit(int code=0)
     TestsD.exe!mainCRTStartup()
     kernel32.dll!7c816d4f()
     ntdll.dll!7c915b4f()
     kernel32.dll!7c8399f3()

The offending code within delete() is:
     _ASSERTE(_BLOCK_TYPE_IS_VALID(pHead->nBlockUse));

Unfortunately, I couldn't make any sense of the data in or near the bad
block.

Regards,
Jason
