Need help on Open API C edit surf code

[gergs]

Can anyone help me debug the code below. When I compile and run it in NX4 I get an error afterwards when I do an EDIT>FEATURE>PARAMETERS ? Before running it make a simple curve mesh surface. Put a string between primary curves 1 and 2 and name it STRING using EDIT>PROPERTIES. The program will add this string to the surface. Afterwards it gets an error on edit as described above. I have a pic of this surface and error but the upload option here isnt working. Apologies.


Header file "edit_surf_add_string.h" in the code below is a default created by the compiler in MS Vis Studio 6. Nothing in there so I didnt add it.


If you have a working code snippet that shows and edit curve mesh surface to add a sting in NX4 that would help too.


Thanks!!
