Forms Designer use causes Quicken to dim and freeze.

RVicker

Every time I bring up the forms designer, make a few changes and
then try and save it, Quicken dims and freezes.All I can do is kill the program from the Task manager. This happens every time. The changes are saved and reinstalling the program has not made any difference.

I have noticed that Quicken doesn't deal with Scale And Layout being set at anything but 100% and another user that I know and has it set at 100% doesn't have this problem.
