We encountered terrible problems with the Developer/2000 layout editor hanging when we tried to edit freshly converted forms. In our case, the problem appeared to be caused when the co-ordinate information property of the form module itself was set to "character". Changing this to "real" appeared to solve the problem in each case.

This may present problems for you if you wish your forms4.5 forms to run in character-mode.

You really do need to have access to an experienced Forms4.5 developer.
