Not sure what was the problem for you or what you got fixed.AlecTek said:Also, how do we create a DB or IDB not by the input/output/inout form, but by SCL?

I got the answer of the second question, at External Source Files
There is no end byte for a string, the first two bytes define the max/act length of the string.
The image you posted is from your own project ? If so, then that shows an AT view that has been created. If not, then show us what you are trying to do.
but is there a way I can edit the second byte directly?
Follow this guide to the letter:
How do you program the overlapping of tags with the keyword "AT" in the STEP 7 (TIA Portal)?
If you still cannot get it to work, then show us where it doesnt work.
edit: And please state the exact hardware and software incl. version no you are using.
