I had this problem when I tried to do a type conversion on a field after dividing it with zero. A business user entered 0 as the USD GBP exchange rate :evil:

Apologies for getting all panicky and jumping the gun before I have read the company guideline.

MQ Stage Missing

Hi,
The MQ stage is missing from one project (not present in Customization -> Customize -> Default Palette Groups and shortcut Items). It is present in all the other projects on the same machine.

Could you please tell me how to add it to this particular project?

Thanks,
