[b_e33]

i use in my intouch wonderware HMI the instrument that i can save a csv file
( on the button writen Save To File) i take it from the wizerds
so when i set a file name he write me an error
" DB DIR item invalid"
what is the problem?
it start when i changed the folder name from HMI to HMI_V2
and i want to fix it

The Save To File Button Has an action script where the first line looks something like this:

HDWDBDir = "C:\HMI";

if you changed the folder name you will need to modify it to suit.

ie. HDWDBDir = "C:\HMI_V2";

This is true because it "bit" me when my colleague did the graphics on his computer in our office and then sent the application file to me in the field. I could not get the trend to save to a file as I was getting the same error as you.

Brendon is correct and I only will add one thing. The Save To button is part of cell and must be broken to access the touch action script.

Hope this helps.
