FH seizes when incomplete date is entered & I click away
I am running FH through CrossOver on a Mac and keep hitting the same problem. If I enter part of a date in a date field and then click away to check the date I am entering is correct, when I click back to FH it is frozen. Hitting the Cancel button or the red cross button does nothing. Pressing Esc doesn't work either. Is there another way to de-freeze FH or do I just Force it to Quit and maybe lose a bit of information?

That problem has caught out several Crossover users already and is summarised in how_to:family_historian_v6_on_crossover_wine#reported_problems|> Reported Problems as
When changing a Date field and the Invalid Date message opens saying Unknown date. Please enter a valid date. do not change focus to another application as ƒh will freeze and must be closed. This problem may affect other error messages.

Thank you Mike. I had not found that Knowledge Base article.
