Hi Karen, If I understand your situation correctly, I've had those problems myself. I found if I set a tab using the ruler instead of opening the paragraph designer and setting it there, this created a problem with the paragraph designer not letting me move through the pages. And that behaviour always indicated the application was going to crash momentarily or quite soon. If I follow this procedure, I don't seem to have problems viewing the paragraph designer page I need.
On another strange topic, I just had FrameMaker 9 remove all of the lines I had for special paragraph tags, such as Footnotes and Notes. Not on all of the documents, but just some of them. I had to open the Reference page and copy the line in the first element (Footnote) for all affected files. And then all of the lines (for about 12 styles) all showed up as if by magic. Those types of screwy things have me saving all files, exiting out of FrameMaker before it crashes, and then starting another session. Good luck!
