Hi You mention that you use Vim-7.3. The latest version is Vim-7.3.189. I recommend to upgrade. Several crash bugs have been fixed already since Vim-7.3. The following patch may be the one which addresses your issue: 7.3.066 crash when changing to another window during :vimgrep command See this link for downloading a more version of Vim for Windows: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Where_to_download_Vim If it still happens with a recent version of Vim, then please describe all the steps you do to reproduce the bug: which vimgrep command, how you open files, how you switch tabs, which plugins you use, etc. Ideally, try to reproduce the bug with: vim -u NONE -U NONE Regards -- Dominique -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
