V4RB Unexpected Quit

[alvin]

Thanks Ruslan,

I checked it out and removed a character from the original database. Then
did another XML dump and found another one. The offending line says:

<f n="cdocid">rvtwgq~ü8!</f>

There is actually nothing wrong with this but it appears the rectangel
between the w and the g is what is causing the error. I could be wrong, but
I would have thought that shouldn't cause problems.

In any case, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the record itself
as it is not that record that is causing the server program to quit. Is
there anything that can cause Realbasic to quit without even touching an
exception error when updating a record? I've exported the whole database
where the offending records are and reimported it with no problems so it
doesn't look like there is any problem with the data itself. All the program
does is read the data, load the appropriate database record, set the fields
with the new data and then update the record. It is when it is updating the
record that the server program quits and I cannot catch any errors to see
why.

Any suggestions would be really appreciated.

Thanks very much.

Cindy
