InDesign CC 2018 Crashes when using Eyedropper Tool

[Eldoren]

Hello

I am using the Mac version of Adobe InDesign CC 2018 and I am having a problem with the following

When working in TABLES in an InDEsign file, if I highlight a ROW in a table, then choose the Color picker tool and highlight an other object with a different color ( so I can copy this object colour) my program crashes and quits unexpectantly.

The work around is I can create a SWATCH in my swatch list and then simply apply that swatch to the object. But I figured I needed to at least tell someone to see if they have the problem. It happens every time. I am using version 13.00 on a MacBook pro running OS version 10.12.6

Thanks

Gordon
