Ah, it didn't hit me until now. This is very similar to the problem I had then. I didn't get any crash, but I got 2GB+ vm, which suggest the problem is almost identical. After weeks of trials and errors, my solution was to export to PM4 then reimport to PM5. I think PM5's indexing engine is a little too sensitive. -- - Hiro [PROTECTED] <[PROTECTED]> <[PROTECTED]>
