"Block Universal ID Alias path. Entry Desc size is not 2"


Does anyone have any idea what this means?... I was doing some programming and all of a sudden I get this. It pops up with or without the radio connected. I have other codeplugs saved on the Machine THEY are all fine it's only when I open up the Code plug on the radio I was originally working on. Reboot did not clear the issue either.
Thanks so much.

So tell the rest of the world what caused your problem. How do you expect the rest of us to learn the problems with Motorola's software.

Hello all,
Quite simply I don't what caused it... but I can tell you what I did to fix it. I just RE started the SW(instead of running it from the CP I already had on the desktop) and after it loaded I RE read the radio saved THE NEW code plug in the same place(same name) as the previous Code plug that gave me the Error message when it complained that there was already a CP with the same name I just told it to save it there anyhow.

So far so good. I have not had many issues with programming and SW so when I saw this I thought"ok it's my turn now" Luckily it was an easy fix.
