Access writing violation when using INVOKE

currently messing around with x86 assembly and I'm having some issues identifying the reason why the following code is causing a write access violation:

Solution 
  • main PROC
INVOKE minmax,
        OFFSET array,
        LENGTHOF array,
        OFFSET msg1,
        OFFSET msg2


main ENDP

    Look at your proc carefully... Your missing something, do you realize what? Well, your missing a ret right before main endp! Without a ret the cpu will continue executing what ever is after main endp.

    main PROC
INVOKE minmax,
        OFFSET array,
        LENGTHOF array,
        OFFSET msg1,
        OFFSET msg2

ret
main ENDP

    is correct
