Hi agian,
I have not been able to reproduce the crash report, hovewer, I have no
problem in producing a crash.

When I try the "Form Wizard" to create a form a crash will occure upon
saving the form.  What I see at box with the following message:

Error loading BASIC of document
General Error.
General input/output error.

I need to click this box away 3 or 4 times to have it disapear.

The same thing happens when editing a table and then saving it.

An "anomality" in my setup is that I use Norwegian in my language setup
though I have an original English-US installation of OO.  OO Base don't
allow for the "default language for documents" to be altered.

Does this make any sense?

Regards,
Truls
