Well, I think I know the solution to this, but I want to verify it to ensure that its the best thing to do. 
Anyways, a location in a map I'm making became corrupt, where looking at it in the location layer of sc-xtra crashes the editor, or opening a location list while editing triggers also crashes the editor. What is the best way to fix this? I am pretty sure it is the text string itself that is messed up.

[center]It's probably an unsigned character being displayed in the string... Try hexing the STR section, and see if that fixes it...[/center]

hexing is a pain in the ass, use SF or SCMdrafts string editor and just rename the string.

Yeah, it sounds like it might be a string problem. Check your strings and locations.

If all else fails, theres a program here (cant remember the name of it) that allows you to recreate certain things in a map. So you can choose to recreate all the units and terrain and leave out the strings and such

You could go into ProEdit, find the string, and delete it, then renake it in SCXE. That's what I usually do.
