color=#0000ff size=2>I believe that in the eQUEST wizard if your defined
zone walls are even the slightest bit off from what you defined as the building
footprint, they will not be recognized as exterior walls. You could go through
the wizard to correct this, create a new exterior wall in the detailed design
mode and delete the interior wall, or go to the .inp file to change the wall
type. You can't easily change a wall type from interior to exterior within
eQUEST.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello all again.</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've imported a CAD drawing, using schematic design
mode I drew the custom foot print and then the custom individual zones. I have a
couple of exterior walls that show up as interior walls, even after a lot of
tweaking. Any suggestions for converting these interior walls to exterior walls
(simply)?</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks again.</FONT> </P>
