[Equest-users] Blank simulation data

Hey Scott,

There was no dot character in the filename, but what is strange is that when I did a "Save As" and added another word to the end of the filename and then simulated the file with the modified name, it simulated both the file with the modified name AND the original one (that I was originally trying to modify)!  This happened for two projects I have.  Thanks for the info,

     -Dan

Does the project filename contain a '.' (dot) character BEFORE the file
extension,
i.e. "Project One.Base.pd2"??
If so, perform a Save As... within eQUEST to a project filename
excluding the dot, such as "Project One-Base.pd2", re-simulate and you
should be good to go.
