(They were the same at each crash.)<br><br>He then confirmed what I described and asked if I could be placed on "hold" while he checked into it.<br><br>I was on hold perhaps no more than a minute when he came back on the line and told me that the fix is to place the working files on the same hard drive where FM 11.0 is installed.<br><br>I
inquired as to if he is sure about this and he agreed without hesitation, saying this was sp[ecific with FM 11.0 (I don't recall if it does or will apply to FM 12.0.)<br><br>As I described in another e-mail here, that SEEMS to have cleared up my coworker's problem. It's been an hour or so since he got back into things and so far, no more crashes.<br><br>Please note that my coworker's FM crash problems occurred intermittently, perhaps several times a week and not all day every day, so we'll have to see what happens over the next few days, etc.<br><br>I'm still on FM 8.0 and because I like the user interface as it is and I've had no crash problems, I might just stay with it, eh?<br><br>-- Ken in Atlanta<br></div><div style="font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;font-size:14pt"><br><div style="font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;font-size:12pt"><font face="Tahoma" size="2"><hr size="1"><b><span style="font-weight:
