Run-time Error - "no such attribute"

[David McFarlane]

Kathy,

I would check your code again.  Although the attribute "varwin1II" 
may exist (as evidenced by success in the first instance), the error 
message indicates that the attribute "varwin4II" does not exist.  So 
please look again and make sure that you have indeed defined 
"varwin4II" at a time prior to the failing line.  Also, exactly where 
is line 962, that might help us to inspect your script sample?

Also, you might go to the PST Forum and run a search using the term 
"no such attribute", I believe others have asked a similar question 
and you might get some clues there, although I don't know if it will 
exactly address your problem.

Good luck,
