[Dx4win] Error when confirming QSL cards

I am using DX4Win v9.04 (1176) on a Windows 10 machine, and it has been 
working successfully for months, but recently I was suspicious that when 
pressing F2 to confirm a contact and mark it up for printing a label it 
has not always put a "Y" in the label field.   I had been blaming myself 
for not pressing F2 when it didn't come out in the batch I was doing, 
and I ended up having to mark that label for printing again.

However, yesterday I noticed two errors:

1) It frequently didn't (but not every time!) put the "Y" in the label 
field - but it did put a "Y" in the Confirmed field.  Doing a search 
with F8 again on the same callsign and pressing F2 then sometimes worked 
correctly, but sometimes nothing changed and I had to manually change 
the label field from "N" to "Y".

2) Occasionally it put a "Y" in the label field but left the Confirmed 
field as a "N", and gave me a bug report with the exception message

Access violation at address 0040366E in module 'dx4win.exe'. Read of 
address 3CA93800.

I tried rebooting the PC etc etc, and sometimes it worked afterwards but 
other times I got one or other of the errors described above.

Has anyone else had issues like this?  I have sent the bug report to 
Paul - will report back when we get a solution.
