SimonL, you definitely earned your bounty! Thanks for looking into that! The fact that you do have a corrupted/malformed wallet file confirms that this is probably related to the last person who reported this. They removed the corrupted file and the behavior went away. It sounds like perhaps you just need to remove the WO wallet and re-export the watching-only wallet from the offline computer, to replace the corrupted one (it looks like Armory couldn't fix it). Unfortuantely, it doesn't carry the comments with it... will add that as a later feature (to merge wallet files).
No worries, glad I can help out
I re-exported the watching-only wallet using my offline version 0.88.1-beta but it still threw back the same error, so it seems that something with exporting that particular wallet doesn't agree with the newer version. I'm pretty sure that the watching only wallet that failed was made using 0.88.1 and the other wallets were created using an earlier version, though I'm not 100% certain.
