>I don't expect bug free... But, I do expect crash free during design mode. How much could the beta testers have done with this?

Jess has a point, I can't believe the PB design crashes I get (just playing around with it :)

Here's one idea, though shooting in dark...I had the same error a few times, as I mentioned, early on, but have not seen it in several months (beta6)...Looking back, I wonder if it was related to the MSDN Help being opened up during vfp6 session. I haven't been using Help much at all lately, and no C0000005 crashes, whereas I was using it a lot when I had the crashes...
