the "system just closes out" is defined as: the user will be in her order entry screen either inputting a line item, or header info, or the main status screen when the system for no explainable reason closes and there is no error message displayed, "OR" even logged in event log or anywhere else, its' not a BSOD, or a GPF or an OS lockup, it's just "now you see it now you don't". The app is an ADE format, there are no LDB files, When the app dies, it is not on the task manager, so it's not hung up in the background and just not redrawn. The computer seems to run every other applications just fine w/o fail, it's just this app, and when I run it on her neighbor's pc who also has a windows xpsp2, it runs fine w/o fail, they both type about the same words per minute, and fly past the screens at about the same speed. If I trade this user to the other pc, the problem does not surface so it's not her work method. About the biggest diffrence is that the user with the problems has a newer dell than the other user.
