overflow error crashing jabaco

Hello, I did try to give you a warning about this 1.4.2 version by using facebook, but my message simply vanish. Let me give you some details about the issues I'm experimenting with this new release. I did enjoy the hotkeys, specially CTRL+S to save, and I want to use an updated jabaco release, but it's not compatible with my projects made with Jabaco 1.4

1. I did notice that a long number syntax like 127& is no more supported.

2. Picture.DrawImage(Picture,x,y) became Picture.PaintImage(Image,x,y)... I did miss the explanation for this one, but that's not the big issue I'm having right now.

3. Whatever the modifications I'm doing to my Jabaco project to be 1.4.2 complient, the compiler (whatever I try to compile or run) simply crash. The run option gives the popup window "overflow" error and simply crash Jabaco.

So now, I can't update my current Jabaco projects... and I feel that I did lost my time using it if each new release makes my codes "outdated".

I do like this IDE and I hope this "overflow" issue will be fixed... because I really think it's something inside your IDE that cause this problem.
