Bug: Visio2003 Custom Property named "Position" crashes on load.

[DXJas]

I created a new shape based on the Executive Object and placed it in a new
stencil. I added a custom property called "Position" and went into the
ShapeSheet and changed the name to "prop.Position" in the grid.

I can add shapes all day to the drawing and it loads correctly. But, if I
place a value such as "Position1" in the field, save, and reload it crashes.
I tried this several times.

If you change the prop name to "PositionID" and do the same thing it no
longer crashes.

Thanks for your submission. I tried to reproduce the crash but was unable
to. I'd like to get a more detailed set of steps to reproduce the problem,
