Nemo Posts: 3149 Rating: (171)	Hi first of all I´d use the actual SP for your WinCC version? http://support.automation.siemens.com/WW/view/en/22303359 nemo

Sudha.... Hi, You said you're using SP2. Are you using it in both computers? What I mean is - You created the project under WinCC v6.0 SP2 + Win200 and you're trying to open in WinCC v6.0 SP2 + WinXP? Remember that WinCC isn't downwards compatible, which means if you've developed under WinCC v6.0 SP4 and try to run the project under WinCC v6.0 SP2 you'll have problems. You should always work with the latest versions. As Nemo's mentioned, you can receive SP4 free of charge. The fact that you created the project under Win200 and are trying to open it under XP is not the problem, the problem is likely with the WinCC version. Just to clear this out: you are able to open other projects and create new projects on the WinXP computer, right? Best regards, Danielle

Danielle Posts: 1275 Rating: (123)	You're welcome! Always try to keep WinCC as updated as possible, and you'll be sure to get the best features and bugs corrected. Plus you'll not have to lose time thinking about the version under which projects were created. Best regards, Danielle
