Unexpected IndexerManager crashes

I am currently indexing a book that has each chapter written by a different author. Some chapters cause numerous Index Manager crashes, others cause no crashes at all. The crashes invariably occur when I try to define the starting point of a range. Has anyone else experienced this? And if so, do you know what may be the cause? Perhaps the Word file contains some hidden coding that offends IndexManager?

I’ve had a few crashes recently but haven’t identified any cause. It’s interesting to hear you say about the different chapters. Is each chapter a different file? (In my case they are.)

I do know that when I’ve reopened Index Manager all the latest edits are there so I haven’t really worried.

Thanks Jan. Yes, it is true you don’t lose any entries or edits when crashes occur. It is just when it happens like three times in a row, it becomes rather annoying. The file I am talking about is one Word file containing all the chapters. It is just that some chapters cause crashes, whereas others don’t, and each is written by a different author.
