It happened to me also about 3 times within the last day. 2 of the times was
when I double-clicked the icon to open up the TMG program. Then the screen
went black and nothing worked, not even CAD. I had to cold start the
computer. If everyone has this problem, there must be a bug to cause it.
What is the bug, where is it, and how to get rid of this "crash" bug? After
each crash I did the external repair before trying to go back into the
program. Should I reinstall the program. Each time at least 1 file (a
program file, not one of my data files) was damaged and repaired.

Bob,

By coincidence, that happened to me last night--twice--although it had
never happened to me before. I couldn't get the window to change until I
tried to 'cancel' by pressing escape (ESC). That worked... I don't know how
it's supposed to work, but Esc saved me from C-A-D.
