erroneous error codes

After a second look with some more time at hand I am less sure about the 
exactness of my diagnosis.

First of all, there are two (identical?) script editors in our IDE both 
of which also use "errordialog" much in the same way as in stack 
"mctools" but additionally check for the script limits of the Starter 
Kit. One of these stacks, "script editor", is by default invisible, but 
both stacks "script editor" and "script editor 1" seem to contain the 
same scripts; however, I have not done a word-for-word comparison.

As a substack of the home stack we have got a "Stack 988758648" which 
seems to be entirely empty. Where does it come from?
====================

I re-checked - I think others in our group have done that already - the 
identity of the MC_IDE stacks on my Windows computer from 2.5.1, 2.6a2 
to the different versions of 2.6. With the exception of the different 
engines the IDE stacks are absolutely indentical. But indeed for 
versions higher than 2.5.1 the said *first* error dialog with "integer" 
occurs.
However this does not hold for standalones, which use the same engines.

I then checked the latest engine Rev 2.2 of April 4 in both IDEs; we get 
the "integer" error in the MC_IDE, but not in Revolution.

I hope I am not too far off the mark with a "logical" conclusion that if 
the error codes of the engines have not been changed then something else 
must have been changed that pertains to the interaction of the engine 
with the MC_IDE - or does anybody see other possible conclusions on the 
basis of the described facts?
