Recently I wanted to test some sound effects for a tileset. So I went under the Screen menu, clicked Item and...ZQuest crashed on me, throwing me this Windows error message:

I've tried clicking Item in other .qst files and even a completely blank file, and concluded that it won't work under any circumstances. I think it may have to do with my Windows 8 operating system, because I never got any crashes on my old Windows 7.
