It seems to me that the problem can be brought on by
trying to close the recurring message when a reminder is
set. There's an error message saying something about the
reminder occuring after the appointment--or something
like that. I remove the reminder and close out. And the
problem occurred. I remember that happening at least once
just before such a problem happens.
