It happened again, yesterday. I got the error message "The cancel button cannot be the same as the default button." while running a script that had been working properly for weeks. And there was no 'display ...' command involved. In this case, I quickly found and corrected the problem: there was a reference to the "original item of an alias file" that needed to be enclosed in a try block.

There seems to be a problem with the Finder encountering a legitimate error condition, but returning the error message "The cancel button cannot be the same as the default button.", instead of a message that correctly describes the condition.
