Review error messages : --------------------------- Yes No Cancel --------------------------- What should I do? Answer: There are literally a 100's of different reasons that would cause this message to appear. The only way to know for sure what the problem is, is to select "Yes" and read the error message report. Consider the following procedure: When the message above appears, select the " Yes" button. AutoPIPE report viewer should now automatically open the systemname.MSG file from the same folder location where the PCF and NTL files are stored. Scroll down to the bottom of the listing to see the number of errors: In order to open the model in AutoPIPE, only the ERROR issues need to be resolved. Therefore search the entire report for these Error locations and information about the errors: Navigate to the folder where the *.PCF file is located, Open the systemname.NTL file in any word processor (NotePad, WordPAD, MS Word, etc..). Note: best to use a word processing application (i.e. NotePAD++, UltraEDIT, etc..) that displays the current cursor location with both column and row indicators.. Leave that file NTL file opened in the word processing application and now start AutoPIPE, see the following AutoPIPE help section: Help Contents Search Tab enter " Command Card Reference " (include the quotes), press List Topics button, double click on the selected topic from the list provided to see more information. Using the command card reference in conjunction with the error message report, investigate the NTL file to locate and fix the issue. When you have corrected the problem, save the NTL file to a different name (example: test1.NTL), and reload that new file in AutoPIPE by using File Open AutoPIPE Batch (*.NTL) . If - everything was corrected, the model should be opened in AutoPIPE. If - the file caused the application to abort again, start the same process over from the top using the new file created (i.e. test1.ntl).
