Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Hello,

Can someone tell me what the F9 function does? I have a user who is trying to execute this function and P3 locks up on her. Thanks for any help/advice.

The PFWX.EXE also fixed and checked the files associated with this error: "NPB4ACT.P3 reason #88". The trouble was 1) selecting and "fill cell(s)" would not function, as well as 2) the delete actitivty would not function, until the application file "PFWX.EXE" was run.
Thanks
Ricky

It is obvious that you have a bad data file. You need to run C:\P3WiIN\P3PROGS\PFWX.EXE and follow the instructions in the help file. Good luck!

It’s because the logic link made a loop.

Go "Tool Bar" >>> Click "Schedule" >>> A report will be generated and indicate what’s wrong at late part of it.

Hope it’s useful.
