[TRNSYS-users] Problems with version 15 Types in legacy mode

[David Bradley]

Jochen,
  This may be totally obvious but the "xxx" in "Typexxx" should actually 
be your Type's number. So if you are putting Type201 into legacy mode, 
the line that you add should be:

!DEC$ATTRIBUTES DLLEXPORT :: TYPE201

not

!DEC$ATTRIBUTES DLLEXPORT :: TYPEXXX

If that isn't the cause of the problem, then please send me the *.for 
and the *.tpf that you are trying to run and I will see what I can find.

Kind regards,
 David
