Error message: Could not open the editor: Argument cannot be null

Hi,
I'm getting suddenly error messages when trying to open several (but not all) of my analysis (using TOP 4.0.1):
It says: Could not open the editor: Argument cannot be null
Details show message: "Unable to create editor ID org.talend.dataprofiler.core.ui.editor.analysis.AnalysisEditor: Argument cannot be null"
Here are the details:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Argument cannot be null

I can see all the properties files for each of the analysis in the folder and they all have content.
How can I solve this issue?

TOP 4.0.2 has been released. Could you try and see whether you can reproduce this exception?
If you reproduce it, could you explain what you did?

I tried to open those analysis in 4.0.2 and it also did not work.
I just recreated the analysis and deleted the other file.
Don't know what went wrong and why it happened - so I can't reproduce it.

do you remember what kind of analysis it was? which indicators it contained?

SQL rules, which I created. I don't think the rules were the issue. Something in the files of the Analysis (properties/ana) got corrupted. Checking those files with an editor and comparing them with another file I was not able to find a problem.
I could send you the content of the file(s) - just don't want to post it here.
