Result
Whenever an encyclopedia is opened, the encyclopedia’s SAPROPS.CFG and USRPROPS.TXT files are loaded, parsed, and checked for errors. Your revised version of the properties files are reloaded, and take effect immediately. However, if your changes produce a warning or error when you reopen the encyclopedia, perform these actions:
•If you get a warning message, click OK to close the dialog. Because the specific lines producing the warning will not be loaded with properties file, you must correct the lines that cause the warning before continuing. All lines that do not have warnings are loaded.
•If you get an error message, the encyclopedia does not load. To repair the error:
Start the System Architect Encyclopedia Manager utility, and then select the encyclopedia you are working on.
Click Tools > File Manager.
Select the USRPROPS.TXT file, and then click Export a file from the encyclopedia icon. Do not close the File Manager, so you can import the file after you fix it.
Using a text editor, open USRPROPS.TXT, and then fix the line producing the error. Save the file, and then close it.
In File Manager, click the Import a file from the encyclopedia icon, and then select the USRPROPS.TXT file that you modified above.
