Crash in VStudio on inspection of empty DB

[Kevin Windham]

I am working on a DB app in REALBasic. I have my code setup so that  
the database is built on first run, and any new fields are added to  
the DB when they are not found. This seems to be working fine. I have  
created a DB and I have made one table called person. When my first  
person object is created in my app, the constructor tries to get each  
field in sequence and if it is not there it creates it. There is no  
data in this DB yet. Just the table person and 6 fields.

When I try to inspect this DB in VStudio 2.2, it crashes. Here is the  
top of the crash log.

Version: 2.2 (2.2fc7)

It seems that I am wasting a lot of time messing with crashes and odd  
failures in V2. This is my first attempt at a V2 project, and I am  
wondering if it's worth the effort or I am going about it in the  
wrong way. I've also noticed quite a few documentation errors or  
grammatical failings. Has anyone else experienced a "familiarity  
curve" with the new version that once you get over it things start to  
smooth out? I really don't want to be wasting hours at a time simply  
thinking up various ways to do the same thing in an effort to get on  
with my project.

Should I be using betas maybe? Are there a number of bugs that have  
been fixed since the release version? My experience with the previous  
version was quite a bit better.

Thanks,
Kevin
