I have 15 or so apps and all of the sudden one of them GPFs the IDE when I try and export. I have tried manually exporting and even using a template with the EXPORT command. When done in the IDE it GPFs, when done in the template it does nothing This happens in CW 11.013372 and v12 I can't really provide the app to anyone since it uses a lot of templates. I should have stated when I use a template I can export procedure by procedure, but not at the APP level. Also I have been exporting this app everyday for 15yrs w/o issue as a backup scheme. Any thoughts? ![image](https://clarionhub.com/images/transparent.png) [EXCEPTION-250723-071732.TXT](https://clarionhub.com/uploads/short-url/2IB1jquaQiFp4PwTyXwiMlxfRjw.TXT) (18.3 KB) ---

FORMULA’s are known to crash. In the below Rick had some tips. I would think you could write a UTILITY template to list all FORMULAs. > Sort the APP by module and look at the module/procedure that comes after the last successful one in the exported TXA. Examine that procedure for anything odd. Formulas are notoriously unstable exporting to TXA. I highly recommend getting rid of any Formulas in your APPs. > > Another idea.

Sometimes an errant few clicks and you add an empty FORMULA. Do you get a partial TXA? Figure out the last [PROCEDURE] exported and focus on that one.

OK - THANK YOU EVERYONE! Until I switched to module view and tried the Export, I was not getting anything, After doing this I was able to see and old procedure which I thought was deleted, but for some reason was not and it was saying it was an external procedure when it was an IDE generated procedure. I deleted it again, exited app, recompiled, then tried the Export and all seems good. I appreciate all the different views.
