Hi Mike,
I suspect some change was made in the Datagrid scripts, such as a move
of some code from a stack to a script-only stack or some engine change
in how comparisons are done, variables interpreted, etc. that
inadvertently impacted the Datagrid code, but while we use a lot of
Datagrids, I have never really tried to follow or understand the
internal scripts and I'd can't invest the time just now (too much else
taking priority). I have I think, clearly demonstrated this is a
regression - code works under LC 9.6.8 and fails under LC 9.6.9rc2, so
it's now up to Livecode, Ltd. (or yourself IF you want to dive right in
;-) to solve the bug.
Our choice boils down to [A] Build under 9.6.8 and not have a fix for
the Non-Gregorian calendar crash under macOS which was fixed in 969rc2
OR [B] wait until LC staff or someone fixes this and we find no other
regression in 9.6.9. I think we've now found 3 regressions in 3 weeks,
which is not a good sign for 9.6.9.
BTW, thank you again for your help with the Ask and Answer regressions!

is this in a built app or interpreted?
the "silent fail" has been a feature of LC apps on mobile for a decade.
i wonder if these issues are both caused by some stack moving from binary
to SOS. the ask dialog certainly was migrated to an SOS, recently.
i see you included a recipe stack in the bug report. just like with the ask
dialog, the temptation to dive in might be too great for me...

Anyone else having problems with:
set the dgProp["someProperty"] of grp "someDatagrid"
under LC 9.6.9rc2 vs LC 9.6.8?
In bug https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=24046 were seeing
lines of script where we set the dgProp of a datagrid just stop (like it
hit and 'exit to top'). The same code works without stopping in LC 9.6.8
and consistently fails in 9.6.9rc2.
Just wondering if anyone else has run into this. I did not see a
specific bug reported against 9.6.9rc2 that might have been this issue
before reporting it.
