    on both my Macs... one with Mojave and one with HighSierra.
    Is there someone here that has an idea whath can cause this issue? If it
    can be usefull, I can past crash report here.
    Reopenin solution data file with FMPA 18 seems to work flawless (with or withouth modifing the file extension).

    don't just change a file extension. It's best to open the old file with
    a new version as an old file and to convert it this way to a new
    version.

    If files would just be readable between versions, there would not be the
    need to invent a new file extension. It's suprirising to me that it
    opened at all - but it's a good chance to corrupt a file this way.

    I tried just now to create a runtime solution with a new file created
    starting with a template. And I get the same behavior.
    Problem seems not to be related to my specific solution.

    Mybe you didn't understand me. I changed the file extension I used for
    runtime solution, but file format is always fmp12.
    In any case, I found the original Filemaker pro 15 data file, and using
    it to build a runtime solution gives the same result.

    Thanks for your help, but I found that the issue and the solution (or
    better, a workaround) is described here:

    But this could be a better workaround (but in any case a workaround,
    really disapponted with Claris that won't put a patch on this):
