Thanks to Marion Schneider and Mark for their responses. I have now unearthed that the reason I was only getting one record instead of 55000+ records is because I had incorrectly populated my Counter transformer. Instead of inserting MI_PRINX into my Count Output Attribute field I was erroneously putting MI_PRINX into the Transformer Name field.
Many thanks for your assistance though.

I'm transtlating complex chain elements which are sourced from a MicroStation design file ,and the component parts of each complex chain are linestrings and B-Splines.Though the directive igds_split_complex_chain is set to YES,I can only find the linestring components in the destination file(DWG). That is to say,the B-spline components is losing. In addition,when I open that design file directly with FME Universal Viewer,I also cannot find the B-spline components of the complex chains. fang ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Message: 3 Date: Thu, 21 Jul 2005 13:18:07 +0100 From: "Vinesh Govind" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Output resulting in only one record!

That way at least you'll know whether the data is lost on input, at a particular transformer or on being written. How quick does the translation run?
