Sorry – in my effort to “simplify the code” for posting to a public list, I put in ALERT vs. REQUEST and I cut out other/unnecessary code. The actual code is a bit more extensive on what it is requesting and comparing.
I’m currently working on upgrading our setup to v17.4 since this is a known bug in the Server/Client setting. This is the only instance that I have run into so far where USE ENTITY SELECTION isn’t working. I’ll post back with results once I get the update in place. Thanks!

Try replacing the “ALERT" command with the “Request" command.
