Sorry still need help

Slight smileHi. Thank you for your replys. I must be missing something because I still can't get pcdmis and datapage to work? So here is what I do step by step.
I go to datapage, file menu, Editor. Database, New,Create a new database window opens. I go to browse. I pick c:/datapage folder/ customer folder/part#. In the other window it says datapg6.dbd , hit ok exit out of datapage. Go to PCDMIS 4.1 Into my program, right behind were my probe info is i place stat. To do that go to Insert, statistics command, statistics.
Stat window opens, stats option on, data options,datapage, Add directory to list go to browse button, C:/datapage/customer folder/part#. then hit ok buttons. it places this command Stats/ on, datapage,$
Directory=c\datapage\cusomer\part#,$
Directory=,$
read=10,write=20,Mempage=64,feature name,controlcalc on,$
Stats end.
Then at the end of the program I placed stats/update.
then only thing in the 1st command that is different is on the replys I recived controlcalc is off?
Ran the program and I got a Database error-127, then it goes to updating database c:\datapage\Pc-dmis update verison3.2? I'm not even running 3.2.
Any Ideas ? Thank you all for trying to help me!

    When ever you get a Database error -127, you need to delete

    XSTATS11.TMP in your Pcdmis install folder. This error means that you have a stat command that is trying to send data to a non-existing database. It will never clear itself, the data that is trying to be sent to the non-existing database will STAY in that file until the database exists. So, if you tried to send data just ONE TIME to a non-existing database, you will get that error every time. IF you have the correct database path NOW, it will work.

    ONE OTHER THING!!!! Use NO spaces or special characters for the database location. Use only NUMBERS and LETTERS for the directory name where you create the database. Have you checked to see if the data you are trying to send to the database is in there or are you getting nothing at all?

    Special extra note, use NOTHING but numbers and letters and the _ (underscore) for labels of ANY KIND for features or dimensions in Pcdmis.
  • Directory=c\datapage\cusomer\part#,$
    Directory=,$

    I am assuming you typed this in because it is not the same as what you said you did.
    C:\DATAPAGE\CUSTOMER\PART#
    Also, -127 error is database path not found.
    You have 2 options with the XSTATS11.TMP file.
    1) edit it with NOTEPAD to correct the database path so the database can be correctly updated
    2) delete the file & start over.

    3.2 is the version of DPUPDATE. Not the version of Datapage nor the version of pcdmis.
  • thank you. i will give it a go. No there is nothing there when I check back in datapage. I'll let you know if this works.
  • It worked. Now I have Data in Datapage. Now for the next steps. Thank you.
