Stack Size Bloat?

Erik,

Yes, as a matter of fact, I do...but it usually only amounts to a few 
hundred bytes at most.  I wouldn't have noticed them if I hadn't tried 
that "Export Scripts" stack.  When I see them, I delete them right away. 
 Are these two issues related somehow...maybe symptomatic of some bug?

Best Regards,

Tim Ponn
