Hi,

Has anyone ever experienced the following error in MultiTerm iX when trying to create new filters: "An object with the same name and type already exists. Click OK and enter a new name."?

Thus, creating new filters for all users (including admins and super) is blocked. Strangely, modifying filters is still available.

Hi,

Has anyone ever experienced the following error in MultiTerm iX when trying to create new filters: "An object with the same name and type already exists. Click OK and enter a new name."? There are no naming conflicts, so I don't know what's going on. Changing the proposed name of the filter only re-triggers the error. Thus, creating new filters for all users (including admins and super) is blocked. Strangely, modifying filters is still available.

This is in a multi-user installation of MultiTerm iX 6.2.0.267; SQL 8 backend.

Thanks,

Special characters in filters? Oct 19, 2004

Hi Robert,
Not a direct solution to your problem, but you may want to check for database objects (input models, filters, etc.) containing special characters (/,?,&, etc.). A colleague of mine had problems which were resolved by changing the 'offending' object accordingly.

Best regards,
Ralf
