Does anyone else have this problem (and how was it solved)?

Recently for some reason when I go to edit a script, the program will crash as soon as I open up the script to edit it. The first time this happened it was with a script which had HTML in it so I thought that might have had something to do with it. Now it's happening with another script that doesn't.

I even deleted and rebuilt the script, in case something was corrupted, and it still crashes.

I haven't changed anything on my system (that I know about) and these scripts aren't new. Can anybody help me out?

Is your file being served and if so how? Did your file crash (prior to these problems)? Have you ran Recover on this file? Never use a file which has had Recover performed on it. It sounds like your file is corrupt.

Do you keep daily backups? How far back has the problem been happening? You may have to Recover the file to retrieve the data then import the data into a new clean clone which has never crashed.

Hi LaRetta,

I wasn't aware that I shouldn't use a file that's had recover run on it. My two most active files have had recover run on them quite a few times, because I also access them from our warehouse, from the shared folder on my computer in the office, and the connection can get iffy.

I was able to solve this by rebuilding the script line by line. I discovered that what apparently was making it crash was a web link (in the script as just text). When I included the web link by itself in a separate insert command, instead of including it with other text, the script became stable again.
