Matt,
I've had similar issues when looping through many images in a folder where
user input is required. The data would be output to a results table and
only saved to a file when done looping. I quickly learned that I would
forget to save the file when it errored, or the error was so critical it
would cause a crash and I would lose the table.
Essentially, I wrote the file out at the end of every loop so I wouldn't
lose more than a single file's data. I thought this would cause a
performance hit, but in my case the hit was negligible.
HTH,
Brandon
