Hello,

What version of PPress 4 did you have to cause this error? I have tried for 5 minutes, opening and closing the data selector and basically trying all combinations around it and it did not crash once on my machine here.

Also, could I get some insight into what the machine you are running on is? OS, Service pack, etc etc.

And thank you for taking the time to give such a detailed procedure.

Using PlanetPress 4.0.25.1386
Windows XP Home Edition - Service Pack 1

I was able to duplicate the problem this morning.

I am running windows 2000 here, I will Ghost a WindowsXP Home edition and try it out as I cannot duplicate it in Windows 2000. Thanks for the information.

Duplicated on an XP box and report to our QA/R&D teams.

Thank you for the help.

PS- After duplicating it on the XP I came back to my machine and I decided to try it once more. Of course it happened on the first try.

Have encountered same problem as described here by Brandon.
I am using PP 4.1.4.1599 with XP SP2.

Problem appears on one special form, cannot reload.
If you want me to send this form to you, please advise.
