Description:
After restoring or analyzing the backup file content, if you select a different file to restore, MySQL Administrator crashes.

How to repeat:
1. Create a backup file of your schema.
2. Make a copy the backup file (You need 2 backup files, they do not have to be copies of each other, but a copy will work to duplicate the error.)
3. In MySQL Administrator -> Restore, open a schema backup file.
4. Either Start Restore or Analyze Backup File Content.
5. In MySQL Administrator -> Restore, open a different schema backup file.
6. MySQL Adminstrator crashes, sometimes error message are displayed before crashing.

NOTE:  If you skip step 4, you can change the restore file.  Only once the file has either been analyzed or used in a restore operation does MySQL Administrator crash

Suggested fix:
Allow users to restore from or analyze more than one backup file without having to restart MySQL Administrator.

Thank you for a bug report. Verified just as described on XP with MySQL Administrator 1.1.5. 

Note: you need to use non-empty backup, so that first analysis produce a tree of objects in backup.

Than you for the bug report. I was unable to repeat with version 1.2.1 Beta,
then already fixed in release version.
