PresentationError

“Unhandled exception has occurred in your application.  If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue.  If you click Quit, the application will close immediately.”

I received the above — rather intimidating — error message upon opening Presentation Studio in PortfolioCenter and attempting to edit a presentation.

Clicking continue crashed PortfolioCenter.  Clicking Quit closed Presentation Studio.

What had I done wrong?

I created a new Presentation and named it after the first report in it.

I received no warnings or alarms at the time I created the new presentation. It wasn’t until the first time I attempted to use the Presentation that I discovered the problem.

The only solution was to restore my latest backup and start over.  Fortunately, I make daily backups this “nuclear option” created little distress.

Moral: Be careful what you name new Presentations.
