Hi,
i am using a routine in my sequence which will return date/count and i need to pass this as a parameter to the next activity. while testing the routine alone it is returning a correct value but while running through sequence i am getting the following error.

code=-4
[ParamValue/Limitvalue is not appropriate].

i am using a user variable activity to get value from this routine

It may look ok when testing, but it really isn't which is why you get the error. This is typically because of @FM characters in the returned value. Without knowing exactly what you are doing, a couple of suggestions:

1) Either take only the first element of the dynamic array by putting '<1>' at the end of your varaible name, i.e. VariableName<1>

2) Strip @FM from the value using EReplace(VariableName, @FM,"")

One of the two should solve your problem.

Craig - doesn't this also occur when you try to set an integer parameter to the value "Hello World"?

Sure. I made the assumption that the types are matching and it's not something really basic like that.
