RSLogix 5000

[Guest Twinson]

Hi Usually in PLC5 I save the corrected program and change the file properties to read-only. Later, when I open the read-only file, I get a copy of the file - and save this to a new file name (new time and date) In RSLogix 5000 when I do the same - I cannot open the read only file, but I would like to get a copy.... as before How can I do this?

Create copy of your read only file, make sure read only attribute is removed from te copy and then doubleclick on it (copy).

OK The program now says: Failed to open file xxx - access denied - error 717-80070005 It should rather say: The file xxx is currently open or read only file - would you like to work with a copy - and then I would click Yes. Hoping to get this standard feature soon.... Twinson
