Material file parameter

Material file parameter

Wecreatedour own parameters from way back in 1998 when we first went to IntraLink. One ofthe parameters is called MATERIAL. Current material files now have a parameter called PTC_MATERIAL_NAME.


I am trying to set up a relation so that our custom parameter will use that material file parameter. However, I cannot get the relation to work.


MATERIAL=material_param("PTC_MATERIAL_NAME")


Using PTC_MATERIAL_DESCRIPTION works just fine. Butwhen I try the NAME it tells me Invalid data type combination at right side of expression. Has anyone else been able to get it to work?
