Closing an Empty Results Table from within a Macro gives an error

I have encountered a problem trying to close an empty Results Table from
within a macro.

 

I have even used the macro recorder to record my manual steps.  When I play
back the recorded steps the program crashes with the error message:
"Unrecognized command: 0."  This is the same result I get when executing my
macro.

 

When I execute the steps manually using the ImageJ toolbar, the series of
commands work fine.  I have copied the recorded macro below.  The Results
Table is empty because a previously defined rectangular selection (not shown
below) did not include any particles.  The macro works fine when the Results
Table has content.  The code below doesn't make much sense as I have
stripped out all but the pertinent commands to demonstrate the problem.

 

The crash occurs upon execution of the run("Close") command.

 

run("Analyze Particles...", "size=0-Infinity circularity=0.00-1.00
show=Nothing display");

run("Clear Results");

run("Close");

run("Measure");

 

Any suggestions?
