Tom,

I ALWAYS initially think that it's my programming (because... lots of times
it is!).  In my case, I was SCONNECTing and SATTACHing several tables and I
have streamlined the code.  It helps, nevertheless, the problem continues
and we search for an answer as my users have great difficulty in doing their
work. In a way, I'm comforted that it's not just me but it would be simpler
to fix if it was!

I've looked at the events log on one machine and cannot detect any related
problem.

Claudine,
I also doubt it has anything to do with R:base itself since the forms run as
expected in other settings. All the other forms  run just fine except this
one situation. It takes going through about 10 forms (from initial startup
to this EEP) to get to this particular spot. The computers have plenty of
power/brains so that shouldn't be an issue. Run the database at home on a
laptop/desktop or at work on the LAN = same results.  R:Base or not, the
being dropped from the database exists and finding an alternative which
avoids whatever it causing  the problem would make life easier.

Tom,

I strongly believe this has NOTHING to do with R:BASE!

I have been struggling with a similar issue for a month now.  It started
with one user on XP and I now have two users on WIN 7 64-bit --both on V8
compiled applications.  They get kicked out repeatedly of their main
entry/edit forms and the db files get out of sync.

After reading of your experience, I am starting to wonder if it is a Windows
Update that is causing this.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - 9.1 stops working.

Using 9.1 with latest updates on both Win 7 and XP machines with 2 gig
memory each. I have one form that drops the user out of the database and I
cannot figure out why. The form collects information about CONTACTS (name,
address, phone, and 18 additional fields).

1. When I call CONTACTS straight from a menu list it works correctly every
time.
2. Another form tracks prescribed MEDICATIONS and uses a drop down to select
the prescribing physician. If the name is new, the user hits a green '+'
which fires an EEP to load the CONTACTS form to collect the new physician's
info.

I use this basic system successfully in many locations. However in Example
#2 I can go to any field within the called CONTACT to add info but as soon
as I click on any other CONTACT field, the database closes. 
In XP the database just shuts down. In Win 7 this message comes up: 
"R:Base 9.1 has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop
working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a
solution is available".

The MEDICATION form has 33 items that do something and on it's own it always
works. I have stripped EEPs out of CONTACTS to eliminate conflicts, rebuilt
the forms, Echo and Trace do not show anything.

What is a likely cause of the database just stopping like this? All I can
think of is there is some kind of conflict, but nothing pops up that I can
see.
