[Equest-users] BDL Error Trouble Shooting

[Julien Marrec]

Jill,

If you want people to help,
It' be helpful to share the files themselves or at least what errors you are getting so it gets specific enough for people to advise.

By what you are saying (8-10 min to run it)  I would tend to postulate you created way more zones than necessary even given the fact that hospital are large buildings. (Or you could have an antique computer)

Best,
Julien

It seems that once I close the BDL Error Screen I do not have a way of going back in without re-generating which takes 8-10 minutes to see the errors AND I don't see a way to drill down on the errors to try to resolve. I am sure many of them are inter-related but I dont even know where to start.

I know every one is slammed but any and all help would be greatly appreciated as I think this is a field that I may stay in for awhile.
