Dear Mr. Bradley,

               Many thanks! You're right. But when I open the TRNSYS 15's
*.tpf file using TRNSYS 17 studio, so many former informations lost, the
links' color became BLUE, please see the ATTACHED.

              What's more, the TRNBUILD cann't open the former TRNSYS 15's
*.bui file directly. It said, "cannot open BUI-File:(c:\trnsys
15\usr\Iwobay.bld)". Please see the 2nd ATTACHED. Please give me some
advices to open them completely and keep all the former contents in detail
using the TRNSYS 15/prebid/iisibat! I'm very eager to use those former
programs.

             My support said to me, try to adapt the syntax in the .dec file
to TRNSYS 17, but I tried, it still goes blank. Please see the 3rd ATTACHED.
How to adapt the syntax in the .dec file to TRNSYS 17?

        Thanks a lot!

        Br.

wang
