<p>Assile,</p>
<p> You cannot do it directly by passing a value to Type56. The
method I explained is a bit clumsy but it accomplishes the same
thing.</p>
<p>kind regards,</p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p>The way to do this is to make a different *.bui file for each
iteration of the parametric table then add a series of ASSIGN
statements in your *.dck so that each of the *.bui files is
assigned a unique logical unit number. You then create an
equation that sets the value of the logical unit number that
Type56 will use and you replace Type56's logical unit
parameter with the name of the defined variable. When you
create the parametric table in TRNEdit, you'll select that
same variable name and assign one table run to each of the
logical unit values.</p>
<p>kind regards,</p>
<p> David</p>
