This error comes from FrmCopyLabel -- its an error that happens if you 
try to copy a label into a form object that isn't a label.

If you're seeing this and you know you have a real label, then you might 
be modifying some other part of the form and overflowing an internal 
control length -- however, the 4.0 debug ROMs should detect that too.
