Is there any way to detect Access Violation through code and display an error
message?

Kostatus, you're looking for win32 structured exception handling not to be
confused with C++ exception handling.
There's quite some information about that in MSDN. You might also want to
check out the CRT's eh.h header file and write yourself a handler for your
structured exception. Your handler would receive a pointer to an
EXCEPTION_POINTERS struct which you can use to get more information.
This way you can even translate structured exceptions into c++ exceptions
and treat them uniformly if you wish so.

yes there is.
use this (this is one way to handle) :

__try {
// code to protect here
}
__except ( EXCEPTION_EXECUTE_HANDLER ) {
// handling the exception
}
