pro program how to turn a local group off?

[Skiddy]

Hi,

i have created a local group in a prt file consisting of three protrusions. i want to be able to turn it on and off as desired using pro program. I have gone back to basics with these 3 protrusions but i still maintain to get errors!

below is a copy of the statements in pro program including where the errors highlight.

Please can you tell me where im going wrong?

(local group=shapes)

many thanks,

Hi Skiddy,

Take a look here (sequence from your PRO/PROGRAM):
.
.
.

if include_prot==yes
add part prot



ADD FEATURE (initial number 5)
!*** ERR: no END ADD statement for ADD on line 0
INTERNAL FEATURE ID 99

.
.
.

Please add ENDIF statement like this (remember every IF must end with an ENDIF statement):

if include_prot==yes
add part prot
ENDIF

That was your error!

Good luck.
