Re: Frame 5.5.3 Change/Find bug causing crash not limitedto



Don't bet the farm on it.

It may be a known bug to someone, but the Find/Change function is still
a volatile .fm-crasher.  Don't ever search on a paragraph tag, then try
to replace the found tag item with text.  (If that action is beyond the
capability of the software, we should be given an error message other
than "Internal Error...FrameMaker has a headache and is going to leave
you now.  Here's a generated FrameLog_ text file to use instead."  (I
paraphrase)
