I have Step 7 on my desktop and laptop (5.3).

On my laptop, when I open a DB and select Data View I get columns which include Initial Value and Actual value.

On my desktop, I only ever get Initial Value, even when on-line, I cannot see what the actual value is.

I'm sure its a simple tick in a box somewhere but trying to find that box is the problem.

I don't want a VAT as I'm wanting to set up values prior to download. I could transfer the project onto the laptop but now I want to know why.

Any takers??
