While on the custom data field screen (Joomla 1.5.15), I clicked the down to bottom arrow to move a field to the bottom.

CiviCRM 3.1.4

I got this crash error:
    Sorry. A non-recoverable error has occurred.

    DB Error: syntax error

    Database Error Code: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1, 1064

It was after doing several other operations. Too bad the crash information isn't helpful. I didn't keep track of all the steps and things I had been doing before hand. Just doing this and nothing else (new sign-in) doesn't cause the problem, but it did happen.
