Good Evening Willem,
What do you mean by "Every other time".

I would suggest a simple test.

Close dBase
Open dBase and open a report in designer.
Move a control by 1 metric and revert it back to its original position
(Move in any direction and then move back so that a change is registered)

Press ctrl+w to close the report.

Try opening the report again.
If dbase crashes okay if not then repeat modify / ctrl+w / open the
report again.

You may have to repeat a few times to establish a pattern (Preferably do
not make any change that you may forget reversing)


If you have a pattern then move on to next step

Restart dbase
modify report / close report by clicking on red cross.
Repeat above steps.

Hopefully dbase will not crash now.

This has solved issues for others.

Regards
Akshat
