I'm afraid this is not an IDE problem, but a 0.60.6 problem.

I use win98SE2 as well. As it bears a full screen splash Windows logo, I'm 
curious to know how it's pre-Windows.

I upgraded to 0.60.6 recently (see my post on last sunday UTC), but had to go 
back to 0.60.3. I can't create an EditText or a RichEdit control under 0.60.6, 
it fails with error 461 as well.
Under 98ES2 and using 0.60.3, IDE and my apps work fine, thanks.
