<QUOTE>
I am using a ViP 2.5 locked application on a Windows 95 machine. Sometimes, when I leave my ViP application window open and switch to other Windows programs (e.g: opening Ms Mail or finding a file using the Windows file finder) and come back to the ViP app, it is in a "frozen" state. The only thing than can be done then is to end the non responding task, using ctrl-alt-del. The ViP application is not doing anything at the time I switch from it. All my apps are installed locally and the freezes occur randomly(not specific to any application window or external program). Both Windows and ViP have been re-installed, which did not solve the problem.



What could be the source of this behaviour?

<QUOTE>Hello Beth,



I have not seen this behavior on my workstations.

However, this seems like a memory conflict. .



If you are working under Win95, please try booting in safe mode F8 and rerun the app.  Does the error occur?



Can you also reproduce this behavior running the app on another machine?



Try pin-pointing what script or event that causes the error (when it does occur).



Have you attemted to recreate the form in case of corruption?



Hope this helps.
