By trying your code, I get a "stack overflow" error, not a crash. Which 
version of gambas do you use ?

Note that changing the value of a checkbox raises an event, and so change the 
value of LAST (this behaviour may change in the future). So cbAnswer_Click is 
called recursively until the stack is full.
