Designer 8.5 crashes

Hi, my colleagues and I are facing this problem. Whenever we open Domino Designer the NSD window appears and Notes crashes.Next thing I have to do is try to open designer from a different location, like either the icon on my desktop or from within the Open drop down list in Notes, and sometimes it works if I right click on the DB (Application) and seelct Open in Designer.

I have seen a lot of crash entries in the forum but none when trying to open the designer.

Appreciate the help.

…or you could contact Lotus Support and they can step you through collecting the information they need.

Subject: nsd file too large

Thanks Andrea.Actually the NSD file (nsd_W32I_PZTHODD4_2009_03_19@10_54_28.log) is too large in size, 2.7 MB and there is a 68K file core_NLNOTES_W32I_PZTHODD4_2009_03_19@10_54_28.dmp too.

How can I send them across?

Subject: Try Zipping them, they’re text and compress nicely. (eom)

Subject: Where or how to send the zip file

Hi,yes zipping the file worked nicely but I am not sure where to send them or if I can actually attach the file in a post.

First time I am doing that.

Thanks for the help.
