I crashed it a few times. I also managed to get it to corrupt its

That was an older version though.

Mine is presumably older - I got it when I did the company thing in
2003, and haven't updated it since then.

That's about the age of mine... BEWARE.

Well I have been using it for 4 years and haven't had any problems. I
have a backup every 3 months, which is when I use it non stop for a week
or so.

Flogging my memory, I seem to recall that the issue arose around a
transaction involving raising credit on a sale for a customer, or
perhaps the equivalent thing for a supplier.

I must admit that confuses me every time - accounting just seems so
backwards. Having said that, the program hasn't caused me problems, just
my knowledge of accounting
