If you open a table using HANDLER,
 
e.g, HANDLER MYTABLE OPEN;
 
then during the course of your application truncate that table, 
 
e.g, TRUNCATE TABLE MYTABLE;
 
then you get some really wierd behaviour (my wierd behaviour was the
application rolling on a free in a completely different part of the
program).
 
I hadn't even used a HANDLER READ when it had crashed - just the OPEN.
 
I guess it's kind of understandable, and not something that happens a lot,
but it may be worth adding this caveat to the documentation (to save some
other lost soul hours of screen kicking).

Ian Collins.
