Object reference error

When exiting SQL Data Compare, I got the following message: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object. Do you want to correct the value?" After clicking no during several sessions, I finally clicked Yes, and the results were disasterous. All my table selections, filters, mappings, etc. dissappeared, which means I've got to re-enter everything from scratch. What causes this error? Clearly I'd like to avoid this in the future.

We're looking into possible causes for this at this time. As far as I can tell, the program should only be taking one action when it is closed, and that is to delete any temporary files that had been allocated by the program. I do not see anything that would affect a comparison project. I'm still looking, though...
Have you got a mandatory or roaming profile? Maybe something is happening to your projects as a result of logging in and out?
