As I mentioned, I had one script where the breakpoints pane reported that the script had a breakpoint on line 6 hundred something, and there have never been any more that 200 lines in the script. I think that the recorded breakpoint moves when the script is saved, but the displayed red dot remains where it is. I can fix it by clicking to turn off the red dot then clicking again to turn it on.

In the message box, type "put the breakpoints" and see if that helps.

Also the virtual breakpoints are stored as custom properties (the 
cREVGeneral["breakpoints"]) of stacks, so check there to see if there's 
anything that shouldn't be there.

As a last resort, if you're seeing line numbers that obviously aren't in 
your script, then the IDE's debugger may be misinterpreting the behavior 
extension in the executionContexts and referencing a behavior script 
somewhere else.
