I actually just tried running it in Windows XP mode and as of right now it
is working fine.

Mike,



I’ve seen other reports of the same error message.  One of the suggestions
I’ve seen is to go to your Program Files folder, right click the eQUEST.exe
file, select properties, then compatibility, and then select Windows XP
with the highest numbered service pack available.



I get the message at times.  It generally happens when I’m exiting wizard
mode from making inputs.  It appears that the inputs do get written to
file, though.  When I get the error message, at the top left of the screen
I can see that my project is no longer displayed.  I have to exit eQUEST
and re-launch the program, and select the project I was working on.  When I
open the project, it generally seems that the input changes I made did get
saved before the error message came up.



I’m not sure changing the compatibility mode will always fix the problem,
however, it appears to be more of an irritant as your changes don’t seem to
get lost.



My best.

Hello,



I’m trying to create a parametric run to convert my PTAC system to a PSZ
system and every time a get Invalid Argument message.  The only thing that
I am doing in the run is changing system type to PSZ and defining the
Control Zone.  Has anyone else had this issue or does anyone have any ideas
on how to fix it?



Thanks
