I keep getting an "invalid argument" error if I try to create a new opportunity or try to open an existing opportunity. I attached the error details. Thank you!

    You might want to try the following

    1.  Disable all JavaScript and synchronous workflows for this entity

    2.  Enable trace to hopefully get more details

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks,
