The information in this article applies to:
This article was previously published under Q111642 SYMPTOMS
If you create a custom Database template in Works and save it from List
view without any data, the next time you try to use it, the following
error may occur:
MSWORKS
An error has occurred in your application. If you choose Ignore,
you should save your work in a new file. If you choose Close,
your application will terminate.
If you choose Close, the following message may appear:
Application Error
MSWorks caused a General Protection Fault in module MSWORKS.EXE
at 0086:1056.
If you add records to the Database template first and save it from List
view, the general protection (GP) fault does not occur; however, the List
view will be blank or only a small amount of the grid will display when the
template is opened. You have to switch to Form view and back to List view
to see the data.
RESOLUTION
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Works version 3.0 for
Windows. This problem was corrected in Works version 3.0a for Windows.
To avoid this problem, save your custom Database templates in Form view.
