Guardians.dat - 379 - Invalid unique id

I made a group of feats with the Editor and added them. They worked fine in the editor and Hero Lab until I recently tested a new Language that I was adding to that .dat file and WHAMMO! I can't pull up any of the characters without it orphaning the previous things I added to the system.

Help....please....*smile*

There is an error in the unique that you assigned to something in your data file "Guardians.dat". The error will be found on line 379, or possibly in an attribute somewhere within the XML element whose definition starts there.

Open the file in a text editor and locate that line number. Whatever thing is being edited there contains the problem. Close the file in the text editor. Now open up the data file within the Hero Lab Editor and select the thing containing the problem. Locate and fix the error within that thing.

This type of problem will *only* occur if you neglect to splice in all things. The Editor will compile all data files whenever you try to splice something. This error will always be caught and reported when you compile all the data files.

Hope this helps....

I accidentally saved a blank new Language whose name saved as "?????". Once I took that bit of code out, everything returned to normal.

Thank you, sir.
