YES! I reported this problem with WinFin 2003 several years ago. It 
was exactly the same problem, when a particular measure was displayed 
in scroll view as the left-most bar, Finale would crash.

Other people and other computers did not have the same problem, so I 
attributed it to a video driver problem. I would recommend trying to 
find the latest update for the video driver for your computer. 
Unfortunately in my case, I already had the last update ever created 
for my video driver installed on my machine.
