Why?

[George Simon]

I mentioned it because you made a point of saying that rclerk works with one
record at a time and rreport works with sets of records.  I was trying to
point out that it doesn't crash from rreport either when you do not call the
table from automatic.

Which is exactly what we expected.

Which is why, without you either narrowing it down, or sending the entire
file (with enough other files to be able to actually run it), it's not
going to be duplicated.

You've mentioned this over and over, and I'm not sure what you're trying
to get at.  ("If I rearrange my processing, it doesn't crash anymore" is
even more evidence that you need to send the processing as-is to fPTech
in order for them to be able to duplicate and fix it.)
