Never seen PROCESS before, it will be trested as a field name. This FEX does not execute because the following fields do not exist in the CAR file:

DOORS, COLOR, PROCESS.

sounds like you're inheriting someone else's system. You might check the edasprof and see if PROCESS is some sort of LET condition..

Hi David,

Do you have a DEFINE that was executed before executing this TABLE request? Or are there any DEFINEs in the MFD? As I heard from one of our tech support consultants, PROCESS can also be a FUNCTION, similar to a DEFINE but it is not associated with a particular MFD.

Hope this helps. Big Grin

Cheers,

Kerry
