Is that activity on the CD Oli? or have you downloaded it? If its on the CD give the activity number and i'll check it on my copy here.

Well that sort of error doesnt usually stop the activity loading, it just wont have placed that item of stock. If its a piece of static stock you probably wont notice its missing, but if its important to the activity it may fail later as it runs.

I'll check it out shortly - powering up DC on laptop now :)

Hmm..... was that the only error you got ?

Ive just fired it up on my copy and ive got a whole stream of error messages. It looks like the upgrade to V5 has changed paths and platforms and stations referenced no longer exist :( The activity has started but will not run to completion as it stands :(

I would suggest you move on to another activity.

Does anyone know if Dave Corfield produced a paths patch for activities when V4 or V5 were released? This is the second error of that type now in a week, which makes me think there is another patch somewhere which I havent installed, and maybe others too.

Yes, you need the following file if you have the V3 CD installed, but have upgraded to V4/V5.
