FAB3k crashes when attempting to open the J5 component package for some reason.

Thanks again for sending the sample file, it was very helpful to determine the cause.
This ODB++ is definitely unique to what I've worked with previously; the problem with J5 component crash is there are commas (,) in the package name: IIE,1,5 - which is not a legal ODB++ name. Especially commas which affect parsing because commas are always used as separators for text files. Basically only dash, underscore, dot, and plus symbols are permitted - see below:
This is from the ODB++ Format Specification:
An entity name may contain only these characters:
o Lower case letters (a through z).
o Digits (0 through 9).
o Punctuation—dash (-), underscore (_), dot (.) and plus (+).
To resolve the issue,
Import the ODB++
Go to menu: Windows > Component Package Browser...
Find Package named: IIE,1,5
Remove the Commas (I replaced with a dash), and press OK.
Now everything works fine when viewing J5.
Here's a quick tutorial showing me perform those steps and open J5 in the component package editor,
Note: Ultimately it's FAB3000 job to load all manufacturing files (even when they're not formatted correctly). We'll have an update shortly that captures and resolves that invalid Package name during ODB++ import -- and the force pin number as a Name as you have requested.
