Many thanks to Peter, Renee, Petr, Martin and Clifton for providing solution to my query. Overall everyone's advise was the same - replace column name to either the existing name or COL1 and it worked! My sincere thanks to everyone.
My query was: I had compiled several workspaces last week. When I tried to open them this week, for some odd reason the layout views are lost and the error message of "Variable or Field code not defined" is displayed. I've viewed the workspaces in the MS note pad and can't find anything wrong with them. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong! Any help will be greatly appreciated. The solution: >From Peter: 1. Open the workspace in a text editor, preferable one that can show line numbers. 2. Go to the line that the error mentions and change the column name here to e.g.. COL1 or a column that exists in the able. 3. Save the workspace. If you haven't got an editor with line numbers search for the "Variable or filed" (here CODE) mentioned in the error. >From Renee: You might want to check to see if any of the field names have been changed. I change the filenames in notepad to col1 and that usually works for me. It usually says, label....with field name (or if you know of a field name that changed, change that one) >From Clifton: MI doesn't like tables without column names. If you have tables in your workspace that have only the MI assigned "ID" field this may be a problem. >From Petr: You must have changed the structure of your original file/files! Or at least its display settings. Try to figure out which one has been changed and that is the key. >From Martin: This usually happens when the field name of a table does not match that used in the workspace for labelling. One way round this is to hack the workspace to remove any references to labelling. Many thanks and regards.
