Paolo and Ken,

This might be a continuation of the Menu "Close" crashing dBASE in dBASE
12 issue that we were having.

The fact that it behaves properly after dBASE is shutdown (thereby
unloading memory and the interpreter) it almost sounds like while dBASE
is loaded, it still has the files open in the interpreter and are having
to unload them to read them.

Kind of like when you try to open a file that is executing and getting a
file is in use message.  Just a spitball observational thought. :)
