I've run into this also, but I don't really have a solution, just a workaround. I try not to put too many data modifications onto one parametric component. If I start to get a lot of changes, I just create another component for the rest of my modifications.

Subject: [Equest-users] Parametric Window Freezes

Anybody else run into the issue when you're in the parametric run dialogue box, if you add too many rows under "Data Modifications:", that the window/program will freeze up? Any time I add more than 7 modifications under a parametric component, my whole computer freezes, and I have to restart it. I've been able to work around it, but it adds time and frustration sometimes.

Thanks,
