In my case, I found that a book file corrupted. I've also had random crashes and can't think of anything unusual I've done. I'd done nothing unusual - I tried to open a file within the book, and it crashed. Repeatedly. I went to a backup of the file, replaced the original file, and then tried opening it from the book again, and it crashed. I realized that my book file was corrupted, so I had to create a new one. My coworker gets random crashes, often when trying to do something with conditional text. I haven't had to work with conditional text as much, so I'm not seeing it. FM 10 also appears to be slow on my system - much more so than FM9. I've run both FM9 and FM10 on this same system. If I have a business case, I can request an upgrade to Win7. -Carla Files are legacy files that were updated from FM9 files. Some files have been MIF-washed in FM10, but not all. -----Original Message----- From: Art Campbell [mailto:art.campb...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, August 02, 2011 3:34 PM To: Martinek, Carla Cc: Framers Subject: Re: Frame 10 crashes and corruption Could you give more details on your environment? Could you give some details on how much RAM, how much free space; are the FM files and graphics local or on a server, etc.... and what exactly do you mean by "simple tasks"? Are the files and books you're working with FM 10 files, or legacy files that you rolled forward from earlier releases? If they did come from earlier releases, did you MIF-wash the files in 10? For the record, on Win 7 32 and 64 systems with 4-8 G RAM, I don't remember the last time I had a 10 crash. Art Campbell ? ? ? ? ? ? ? art.campbell at gmail.com ? "...
