After running a campaign, F4 crashes on exit bug?

After running a campaign, F4 crashes on exit bug.

This was first introduced in the Afghanistan v0.1 release, then it creeped itself into the Iran v0.2 release. I was baffled of what is the cause. Today I figured it out, I just had to use Tacedit, go into the map view and then run:

Objectives -> Repair Objectives
Objectives -> Auto Flag Objectives
and
Objectives -> Clean Objective Flags - and select Yes option.

So if anyone else there runs into this nuisance problem, this is how to fix it :)

Just tried this in Allied Force on the Iran campaign problems (all three campaigns) and it worked like a charm! Nice pointer Snake Man! Thanks!
