The last few days I have noticed a problem losing rung comments, page titles, data file descriptions, and ladder file descriptions in RSLogix500. This has happened on three different machines all with SLC5/04.
I've been doing this for years and never had a problem. The offline program has all rung comments, page titles, etc. I then upload from the processor and presto, the rung comments, etc. are gone. I still have the address descriptions and symbols, but everything else is gone. And yes (in case you were going to ask), the offline program I have may not be identical to what is in the PLC which is why I upload. When prompted to find the matching file, I browse to the offline file I have.
As a work around I did an ASCII export of all the databases from the offline file and then imported them into the online file, but I'm curious why this has just started happening over the last few days. Does anyone know what is happening and how I can avoid it. Thanks.
Note: I just upgraded to version 6.30.00 of RSLogix500.
