Dear Christiaan,Thanks for your quick response. I have been busy doing other things, that's why I only answer today. I have been trying to isolate the items that cause BD to crash and found some items that trigger the behaviour.
And what may perhaps be more important is the .bib file. Where is it located when you open it, is it on the computer itself?
It is stored in a local working copy of my SVN repository. Situation (might help to reproduce) is the following. I am using BD 1.3.18 on my Intel iMac running OS X 10.5.4 bib-file: stored locally. AutoFile preferences are set to /Volumes/myserver/somefolder /Volumes/myserver/somefolder is mounted via smb:// linked files are standard PDF filesThere are 3 items in the file. The first two do trigger a crash, and the last one doesn't. When I delete the Bdsk-File-1 fields of the crasher items: no crash. That the last item does not crash BD is weird since I added the linked files at the same step. Probably it has to do something with the publication type (@incollection)?
If /Volumes/myserver/somefolder is not mounted, no crash happens (that also counts for the full bib file with 841 entries), I only get a lot of warnings in the style of
"master.bib 71 warning possible runaway string started at line 52"If I mount /Volumes/myserver/somefolder while BD is open with either the small bib or the full one, and afterwards select an item with a linked file, BD crashes.
small-crash.bib

I hope that this helps to narrow it down. Should I file a bug report on Sourceforge as well?
All the best, and thanks for your support (and for BibDesk!) Stephan Am 05.08.2008 um 23:21 schrieb Christiaan Hofman:

And what makes it hard is that it crashes in Apple's private code. Any idea what configuration triggers this? It would be helpful if you could reproduce it with as simple a file as possible, best with a single item. I guess it should be an item for which the linked file does not exist on the computer? Though that by itself does not give me any trouble. So if you can give me as many details as possible about what may be non-standard with this linked file?Christiaan
