Bad RAM was my first thought, too, but surely that's a bit unlikely when it's only one program that crashes, and always at *exactly* the same point in the code... The machine is due for a RAM upgrade anyway, so maybe I'll swap the whole lot out and see if that makes any difference, but I'm not hopeful. Scotthome | help
