Can't edit scripts in DataGrid group in Windows 10

[Mark Smith]

I put code in the dg script. It works fine. But to be clear, I only have 8 lines in my script so I’ve never tested the limits.

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.

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.
