[Equest-users] Transferring file that has parametric runs to another computer

Maria,

When I want to run a model on a different computer, I open the model and do a "Save-As" to a flash drive, and then open the model from that flash drive on another computer. (I don't copy the files.) I then do a Save-As to a drive on the computer. The only problem I usually have is it can't find a weather file and I have to download it from DOE-2. I'll put the weather file on the flash drive if I remember, since you are out of luck if it is a custom weather file or you don't have an internet connection.

Subject: [Equest-users] Transferring file that has parametric runs to another computer

All, I would like to transfer a simulation with several parametric runs to another computer for a presentation.  When I try to run the simulation, it will run all the way to the end, and then say, invalid argument.  The baseline run executes just fine, and the parametric runs show up, but won't run.  I have tried copying all of the files from the project folder from one folder to the other, and tried copying just the .inps for the 6 parametric runs plus main .pd2 and .inp files, and neither of these worked.  Also, the error cites a particular line and character in the .prd file (line 4 character 51) as the problem, but the file which works on my desktop has been copied to the laptop, and it doesn't work.  Thanks for any assistance.
