Then I have Online trend control which is archiving production data and also the id-number on time basis. The question is how can Irecallold production data to the trend display by using the id-number instead of time as a key to the archive. Do you have any suggestions? What options do I have? Version: WinCC 6.2 SP2 Regards Varzu

And retrive this time stamp in internal tag or in script to display on trend. You need to write a script. Please see online help on connectivity pack option to deal with this. Regards, rit03

If data you have to retrive are on your WinCC Server (in local machine) i think you don't need Connectivity Pack. rit03 Creat a table to record time stamp for each id-number start and finish time in WinCC MSSQL DB. And retrive this time stamp in internal tag or in script to display on trend. You need to write a script. tat's right, you have to store date/time in a custom archivewith start production event& end production event (your ID production + code start/stop production). But not sure you really need Connectivity pack. You can use other system likestore data in custom files (you have to manage historycal dat in this case) or use user archive (user archive is an optional WinCC tool that manage redundancy Server too). So..there are different way to do that depending what you want spendforoptional pakages or spend in effort todo yourself. But you need store data/time for each ID you want in a custom archive, then write a script for: - look for ID from user archive - read data/time start/end production - use date/time read from user archive to retrive for trend display Best Regards

But, yes...you need "user archive licence"for that (i don't remeberthe cost right now but sure is cheaper than Connectivity pack). Best Regards

Varzu its good thatcan use Wincc database driver for your custome use without any optional package on the WinCC Station. Go to the site http://www.wincc.net/for good example of fetching data from WinCC MSSQL DB reagrds, rit03
