Frame 10 crashes and corruption

[Art Campbell]

Could you give more details on your environment? Could you give some
details on how much RAM, how much free space; are the FM files and
graphics local or on a server, etc....   and what exactly do you mean
by "simple tasks"?

Are the files and books you're working with FM 10 files, or legacy
files that you rolled forward from earlier releases? If they did come
from earlier releases, did you MIF-wash the files in 10?

For the record, on Win 7 32 and 64 systems with 4-8 G RAM, I don't
remember the last time I had a 10 crash.

Again.           NOW FM10 is sorting UPPERCASE letters prior to lowercase letters, whereas in FM9 it was lowercase then uppercase.
