Folks,

If you are not using the latest Windows 64-bit alpha or you are not getting crashes, read no further.


I have put a test version of AstroPlanner Windows 64-bit here:

It has been modified to detect the location of the issue that you’re seeing. I’d appreciate it if you could try it out and when stuff appears in a debug window, send me the contents for analysis. It should also not crash when it does this… With luck this will all be fixed by tonight.

I haven’t yet been able to reproduce this. I will take another crack at it at lunchtime and, if I don’t succeed I will post a “instrumented” version of the app which should not have an exception, and will report exactly where the issue is located (hopefully). Stay tuned.
