So just when I thought I had all the schedule stuff figured out... I am consolidating all the similar windows together by using the SUM function in the Marks database headers. I use the =COUNT formula to display quantity. And I divide by that quantity (/A4, the cell which the +COUNT formula appears) in the formula for overall height, overall width, and elevation. The quantities show up correctly. The dimensions are right if the quantity is 1, but half what they should be when the quantity is 2, and a quarter of what they should be when the quantity is 4. I did this in the door schedule and didn't have a problem. What am I overlooking here?

That worked! Thank you, thank you!!!

While Edit Criteria didn't work, Set Criteria worked. At first I had trouble figuring out what criteria I needed to set beyond the Layer criteria, but I figured it out - Type Is Space. So that is all resolved - thank you very much! Now onto the second part... I can't seem to get a separate Finish Schedule on each sheet. I am using VA Create Schedule to try to place the Finish Schedule on each sheet, but it doesn't seem to want to do it. I can only get it on one sheet at a time. I tried copy and paste, but it will only take the exact schedule and repeat it so when I change the criteria on one, it changes on both... ugh... Sorry to be so needy!

That is exactly what I am doing, but I still get that error message.

Right now the formula is shown as: =DATABASE(Space.'On Schedule'=TRUE) Or if I'm going to use the Room Number as the criteria, that formula is: =(Space.Number)

I tried to edit the criteria from the datebase header, but a message came up that said: "This criteria cannot be edited with the Criteria Dialogue. You must edit the VectorWorks representation of the criteria using the Worksheet Formula Bar." I don't know how to add criterion by formual.

I am working on a multi-story office project and I would like to put a room schedule on the Finish Plan page that is specific just for that level. The room numbers are assigned through space objects and correspond to the different levels by hundreds, i.e. 100s for the first level, 200s for the second level, etc. Is it possible to do this by way of some formula in the Room Schedule?

A really big, big thank you. I looked at your previous posts, experimented around, and seem to be able to do what I need. Now I just have to organize myself and pull it together. Thank you very much!!!

Ohh... okay - that must be a good first step. I've done that and got them all consolidated together. Now, one other question (sorry to be so ignorant) but how do I get it to show the quantity and the correct size of the doors - it seems to have added them all up!

AWESOME! Thank you so much. That was really easy and helpful now that I see that ALL unit defaults are controlled there.

I upgraded to SP3 but that didn't help. So I guess this problem has not been solved yet? *sigh*

I am using the space tool as a way to label rooms. There is a nice feature which will also show the area of the space under additional data. The area is rounded to the nearest thousandth of a square foot. I really have no reason for it to be that precise and would like to round it off to the nearest square foot of 1/10 of a square foot. Is that possible?

I have many of the same doors and would like the door schedule to reflect the quantity of all doors with the same ID. I placed the doors and edited the settings so that all doors that are alike have the same ID. However, the door schedule shows each door individually. Perhaps there was a better way to do this to achieve a consolidated door schedule. I am open to all suggestions. Please help!

I am having the same problem doing an animation in hidden line rendering. Has this memory problem been solved yet?
