FIND causes an abort Mar 14, 2018 By Sam Carter I don't expect to log a support entry on this one. We're searching for a word using SL 360's FIND. Click "search" and we get an abort. Every time. There are so many more important bugs in SL 360 that I just don't think this one is worth logging. Sam

Sam Carter Author 6 years ago03/14/18 at 8:44 pm (UTC) Nope. Inside SL 360 trying to search the NOTES. This is not a big deal. We publish it to Word and search there. Seems buggy though. Sam
Sam Carter Author Reply Deleted 6 years ago03/15/18 at 8:09 pm (UTC) Matthew Bibby Hi Sam, Out of curiosity, did you start this project using the same build of SL you are currently running? Or have you updated SL mid-project? Mid-project. BTW - FIND doesn't crash in all our projects. Maybe it is just me, but I feel that it is crazy for FIND to crash in any project.
Sam Carter Author 6 years ago03/15/18 at 8:35 pm (UTC) Repair didn't help. I suspect there's a special character in the .story text that kills FIND with a buffer overflow fault.
