Hey Howard,

I did finally find one record that was causing problems. It turns out
that if you view it in FM6, it crashes FM6. It was a container field
with a corrupt graphic stored in it; deleting it via ODBC and trying
the conversion seems to have worked.

When I still was getting the error,ads_naming 4.fp7 didn't exist.

Thanks
Andy

Glad you found it. Probably could have gone to a blank layout, and then
navigated to the record to delete it, instead of resorting to odbc. FM6
was likely only crashing when it tried to display the container, not
when it simply navigated to the record.

Anyhow, looks like I called it right. Always a warm fuzzy feeling.



-cheers,
Dave
