I use workbench all the time. Sounds like the classic stack space problem
to me. I would recommend a stack of about 8k. The default 4k is a real
killer on many applications, its just to small.

If you did have a big stack and you still the get the problem. Email me
and describe what your doing. But I doubt very much that it's anything
else other than stack space, since this is the first I've heard of this
problem and their seem to be many many.... people using shell and workbench
with no problems.
