Hi! Well, the problem is this: I'm editing old SW drawings (most of them where designed with SW2003, anyway those files are converted to 2004 using the Conversion Wizard). The work should be simple: just remove one part from the assembly and update the drawing. 3d-models are ok: every part is found and present. BUT: In drawings several part balloons are dangling. Its ok to re-connect, rebuild and save as far as those balloons are single type, but when editing stacked ones.... PUFFF and CRASH! The hole program disappears, no errors no nothing... Instead of re-connecting old stacked balloons (-->Crash), I've also tried to delete them, and put in new ones, and guess what: Crash!. What to do? SW2004, SP2.1 (ok, SP is old...)

Juha, Sounds like a bug that was probably fixed in a subsequent SP. If you don't want to apply service packs, you just have to learn to live with these things. Regards Mark
Of course if you do want to apply service packs, chances are you are going to have to live with other things that will pop up in it place.
