PrintBox bug?

While experimenting with PrintBox() I accidentally put my width (115) into the part of the command syntax where the boxtype goes (valid values are 0 to 33).  The Program Editor approved it without a peep, no error comment at all, but when trying to print in Preview mode, Designer crashed, and the DSR was unrecoverable (I had a backup, of course).

Just thought I'd mention it.

No, I didn't have any @Error checking going on, but I'm not sure if it would have mattered; I got the standard Windows "SDesigner has encountered a problem and needs to close, and you're gonna lose all your work" message.  Clicking "OK" closed both the Preview and SDesigner, and the DSR refused to reopen.

I'll try to replicate it if I can.

No need to try and replicate. This has been fixed in Sesame and will be in the next release.

What do you mean by unrecoverable? If you crash in Sdesigner you should just have to unlock the DSR file.

I beat you to it, it's replicable.  The progam crashes before @ERROR reports a problem.  Glad to hear it's been fixed.  Thanks for the reminder about unlocking.
