« on: December 01, 2019, 09:42:45 PM »
Hi All.
I'm have issuesloading last years working sequences.

I don't know why they sequences were working perfectly fine in December last year.. :(

Thanks

Looks like your models have changed names. that's why it is saying that roof does not exist. Did you change it or delete it from last year?

And I'm a bit rusty, but for the second part you are trying to load the backup file and not the xml file.

Even though we never seem to remember changing anything I have always found it a best practice to import last years sequence and not just open them.  YMMV
