Quark Corrupting Files...

I've been running into an issue that has been getting more and more serious. Quark 6.1 files that I may have worked on only minutes before, then saved and closed, are becoming corrupt. It usually takes a certain action to "corrupt" the file. The most common one lately has been when I press Command-0 to zoom to 100%, it just crashes. I can reopen the file again, but everythime I hit Command-0, it crashes.

My workaround has been to create a new document of the same size and copy and paste everything into the new document. This has been working for small direct-mails and the like, but the problem appears to be getting worse.

Today I had a file that I had worked on only 3 minutes earlier that would then crash everyone's Quark I would try it on. If I did a file...open, sometimes I would get an error message saying that it cannot be opened by this version of Quark (even though I just had it open in that version of Quark a few minutes earlier). I try opening the file in Quark 7 and receive the same error. Since I can't even get the file open anymore, I can't do my normal workaround.

So far to fix the problem I have trashed my preferences, and even completely re-installed my Quark but to no avail.

Has anyone else experienced similar issues?

I am running a G5 on OS 10.4.10
Files are on a Solaris file system which is using FullPress 15.02

Any help is appreciated.

Yes, all the time. I've not found a solution other than to not use Quark.

Using an IntelMac with Tigar... The solution really is to update Quark to 7.2
