More Improper Arguments

I've been getting the dreaded "Encountered an Improper Argument" warning again.
Several times last night, once again this morning on the same site.

Using VSD7 (build 24), Windows7 (64 bit), site is on SDrive. http://ccd.coffeecup.com/

This is popping up whenever I work with a block of 'Lorem Ipsum' text. I deleted a few lines and got the warning, then replaced some of it with my text and got the warning again, seems every time I go near it, it triggers an improper argument. The text box isn't overlapping or touching anything else (as in the past when this happened).

I'm going to try deleting it and typing a new paragraph to see what happens.

Arguing with yourself again? I've seen it a few times, but not nearly as much as I use to. Seems the more I do stuff that isn't recommended the less I see it.:lol:
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

I think it had something to do with the Lorum Ipsum... text. I had the warning pop up 4 times in less than 45 minutes :o
After I deleted that text, all went well. Hopefully it's arguing with someone else's site now :lol:

Paintbrush,

Do you have the Spell Checker option enabled?

I didn't know VSD had a spell check option :lol: I hate those things.
Just had a look, and I don't see any spell-check options (Settings > Preferences/Help Dialogs).

I tried typing some wonky words in VSD and there was no indication of any spell-checking going on.

Mine has the no spell check option as default that way you don't have to go looking for it.:lol: I'm ok with a spell check option being put in but keep that auto correct option away from me. I can stand my iphone thinking it knows what I want to type better then I do. I know I can't spell that great but darn it I know what I'm typing.:lol:

I don't get it, I don't see an option for spell check anywhere. Mine must have a permanent off setting.
But, back to SirAge's post... what would spell-check on or off do as far as improper arguments?

Well, for me in the Editor, when I have Lorum Ipsu text in my code and have the spell checker turned on, when scrolling through the code or doing anything on the page, the program becomes bogged down. Now, this only happens with Lorum Ipsu and spell check turned on, because the Editor sees them all as misspelled words.

Do not know if that is your problem, it was just an idea. lol
