Any ideas why this Crimson code won't compile?

Prototype: cstring RecipeMnemonic(void)

Code:
/*
Returns a string as 000.0KN-00C-00.0S
Where 000.0KN is programmed force in KN
00C is dither counts.
00.0S is dwell in seconds.
*/

Return DecToText(Force,0,3,1,1,0) + "KN-" + IntToText(Counts,10,2)+"C-" + DecToText(Dwell,0,2,1,1,0)+"S";


For some reason I cannot get this to compile. Its for a G307K2. Crimson reports an error but it doesn't tell me what it is and I can't see anything wrong with it. I tried the AsText() function as well. I originally had Force,Count,and Dwell as passed parameters, right now they are tags but once I get this to compile I want to go back to using passed parameters so I can reuse this function.

I have the tags Force (float),Counts (integer),Dwell (float).

I'm racking my brain here because it should have compiled.

I changed the function prototype back to what I originally started with:

cstring RecipeMnemonic(float Force, int Counts, float Dwell)

where Force, Counts, and Dwell are parameters (which is what I actually wanted) and deleted the tags Force, Count, Dwell from the tag DB and then it compiled. Go figure. I don't think anything was different. Oh well, after trying for two hours yesterday and at least two today I finally got what I wanted, still not sure what was wrong with what I had.

Thanks anyways.

I am using the latest build (Crimson updates more often than Adobe )

However I have never been able to get any of the Kadets to run in the emulator. I can run G3s in the emulator.
