Sorry to hear that. Would be interested to know if the problem is
related to an unpassed message handled in a frontScript.

In rare and obscure (hard to reproduce) ways, it's possible. I may have
seen it once or twice over the years, perhaps most recently (a couple
years ago) with some field contents.
Moving one file format change to the next I've never seen an issue. But
the couple times I might have seem something related to format
conversion differences ("might" because unconfirmed) it was when moving
something into a new format from three or four format changes earlier.
