QV crashing while trying to view script

I have a QV file which is working OK but when I try to view the load script, QV crashes displaying the following error. Anyone know a workaround to this?

If you try to execute without view it, Is it working?

Does anyone from QV post here or could someone tell me the procedure for reporting bugs? This issue is getting very annoying.

With such severe and mysterious errors I would'nt hesitate a minute to send it to the support. Use the support form on this website

Hi,

I've seen a few examples in one of the 8.50 versions (can't remember which one) where if you had declared global variables in the macro module you could run into a crash when opening up the Script Editor. It doesn't sound exactly like what you're describing since you have to actually trigger the reload but it might be something worth checking. Also, does the issue occur in every document?

Agree on the contact support part though.

It would be interesting for me to understand what version Dragonauta is using, I have recently upgraded to Service Release 5 of version 8.50 and yesterday I got this same error message appearing when running an automated re-load. This is reloading QVW files but without any GUI interface, i.e. it is running from a command line.

If this is a version related issue (I have never seen this message before) then I'll go back one version.

Cheers,

Hi Johannes

Can you explain to me what you mean by Global Variables in the macro module, I use many variables but I'm not sure if I ever specify if they are global, local or other. Does this have an impact on variables that are declared and populated in the load script?

Cheers,

In this context a global variable would be one defined in the so called "unnamed procedure" in the beginning of the module script, not enclosed by a sub / end sub or function / end fucntion. E. g:

Dim VarGlob
VarGlob = "I'm hungry!"

Sub Try
MsgBox VarGlob
End Sub

A call of Try in an action would display "I'm hungry!"

Thanks Joachim

I don't use global variables at all, so this problem appears not to be related to those.

I've sent something to support, so hopefully we'll get an answer sometime.

Cheers,
