Uh-oh. Seems like there's a timer bug in the build 59 - the official win32 binary exhibits the same behaviour. The latest previous published source is v.56 and it runs okay. I'll try to sort this out in the evening, when I get back home. Thanks for the watchful eye, citizen mdb666

BTW - isn't mdb a short for My Dying Bride by any chance (or do you perhaps consider a pre-2007 Microsoft Access a work of Satan?)
