On a linux system, I just assign a different workspace to the second
idlde session (because it complains the workspace being unavailable).

I don't have this problem on Linux/openSUSE 11.4, using IDL 8.0.1 (64-bit).

It is news to me that it is even *possible* to have
two versions of the IDLDE running. How do you accomplish
this? It probably explains why it doesn't work. :-)

Multiple instances in separate workspaces works fine... I typically
work in at least two workspaces at a time (work on code while running
something else). Mari in tech support was able to reproduce this
problem, and it is CR62334 for future reference.

I have Dialog_Pickfile crashing the IDLDE on 8.2.1 windows 64 bit
If I set up a breakpoint and step through the code it does not crash
