That explains it. I never came across any doc on the nesting level. Thank You!

I recently found a use for passing parameters to an .RMD command file using the RUN command. RUN ppsedit.rmd USING .vdate The documentation for the Run Command says: "To reference the contents of these variables, preface the variable name with a dot (.); for example, set v1 =.%1." This was not working for me. So I traced the called .RMD file and displayed the passed parameter as a watch variable. It showed up as %1-1 not %1 as I had expected. When I changed my references to the passed variable to %1-1 it worked. Am I missing something or is the documentation wrong? Dayle Coxen Florida DOT (850) 410-5635
