Martin, I don’t have an answer for that but this post perked my interest in a hang I was getting. I just found out why the IDE hangs in an apparently tight loop when it's closing. This happened only on one card of the stack. It had a closeCard handler in the behavior. A "breakpoint" statement triggered. It was from early debugging and does not get triggered anymore. It only triggers if all is not well. There is reference to a property in the main stack. Could that stack already be closed and the property returns as empty? Because that would trigger the breakpoint.
Is this a bug or user error? Win 10 LC 9.6.1 Thanks for pushing me(more like a poke) to finally solve this annoyance.

So to edit the script in the DataGrid group I just select the Datagrid group I right click on the DataGrid and select the ‘Edit Script’ menu item. This works fine on the mac. I just tried this on Windows 10 with LiveCode 9.6 and when I try to open the same DataGrid following the same process the script editor opens but it does not load the script. In fact LiveCode becomes unresponsive. The script editor dims as if disabled and the cursor when hovering over the script editor or any other LiveCode windows is the hour glass cursor. If I click on the ‘x’ to close the LiveCode project I get the dialog that says. LiveCode for Windows is not responding If you close the program, you might lose information. —>Close the Program —>Wait for the program to respond. Eventually I just select ‘Close the program’ since the program never responds. I created a test stack with just a DataGrid on it and a button and opened the group script and was able to add a handler and then save it and reopen it so it does work in a simple scenario. In my application I have two dataGrids that have code in the group script. On has 290 lines the other has about 480 lines. So it seems the longer code is a contributing factor. Has anyone else experienced this? It the problem that you are not supposed to have script in the DataGrid’ Group script and rather put it all in the DataGrid's behaviour? Thanks in advance.
