>>Is the error within a DO WHILE ... ENDDO loop? I had a similar problem in a constant loop where I had CANCEL within the loop. I could not recompile the exe and found that, using Windows NT task manager, there was still a process active for the exe!! I had to end the process to release the exe! I changed the CANCEL to EXIT and it never happened again. There was no button on the task bar but there WAS an entry in the process list.

Mario,
To get past this problem (just 'til you sort out the error) try this:-
Before you enter the DO WHILE...ENDDO loop, put ON ERROR EXIT
After the ENDDO, put IF ERROR()!=0, DO
, ENDIF
Without trying this, I can't guarantee that it will work straight away - check the help for ERROR().
