Ver 1.4.1(1) DWX, RX and WX instructions *lose* tags of remote project. Why? I usually open the project from the PC, then transfer the program from the PAC. After changes, I attempt to transfer to PAC, I get compile errors. I have to re-enter the remote tags in SEVERAL DWX/RX/WX instructions. Any help?

This is a known issue with 1.4.1.1 with no known work around and this will be corrected in the next release version, but we currently do not have a release date.

Hope the release data is soon, it is very annoying spending 10 minutes doing this again.
Do you know what sequence of events causes this? I could try to avoid causing it.

Workaround for missing tags RX & WX instructions
It appears there is a work around to keep from having this issue, it is caused by the remote project path does not match were the current project is actually stored. If you read a project into the RX or WX instruction, then move the project, the path is no longer correct, thus causing the issue. Currently this is the only way we can create the problem.

Thank you. If this works, then you will save me countless edits! :eek:
NO LUCK.
Still losing remote tags. The local project folder location has not changed this week and some remote projects have NOT changed folder locations for months!
Wow. I need the next release.

This morning...
Transferred to PAC, saved, went offline and shutdown Productivity Suite.
Worked with another plc package.
Restarted Productivity Suite.
Lost remote tags again. NO path changes. NO project filename changes.
Odd, only a DWX instruction lost tags.

I am FORCED to put this project on hold until A-D releases a version that does NOT LOSE REMOTE PROJECT TAGS.
I lose tags in about 30 comms instructions!
As stated earlier..... NO filename changes ......NO pathname changes......

I would like to help get your problem resolved, so you can move ahead with your project.
Please contact technical support and we would like a copy of your local & all remote projects. Can you specify in your response to tech the tasks that contain the RX & WX instructions that losing the remote tags.
Can you also specifiy the steps you take to create the issue?
When the path is correct & matches the location of the remote project, we can not duplicate the issue here using 1.4.1.1.
