Configuration Notes:
The table below describes the causes of the messages, described above, which can appear during the reorganization of a project:
 

No.	Notes:
1	Message 257:79; "The project or parts of it are currently being edited by another application". This message appears when you start the "File > Reorganize..." function if there is still an application open (e.g. Symbol Table) in the project which is being reorganized. Before reorganizing, close all the applications in the project.
2	Message 256:68 The object ... cannot be edited because it is currently opened by another application or another user". This message appears when you start the "File > Save as..." function together with the "With reorganization (slow)" option if there are still applications open (e.g. Symbol Table) in the project which is being reorganized. Before reorganizing, close all the applications in the project.
3	Message 256:94; "Problems with the offline folder". This message may be due to the fact that the project has been dearchived on a computer and edited with an options package whose version is no longer compatible with the current STEP 7 version. Remedy: First of all check the versions of all the options packages installed on your computer which are required for editing the project. You may need to install one or other update (service pack) or upgrade (new version). You can find information about compatibility with SIMATIC software packages for STEP 7 version V5.3 in Entry ID 18734363. Then make a copy of your project with "File > Save as..." and the option "With reorganization (slow)". ( 16 KB ) Fig. 01

These instructions have been created with STEP 7 V5.3 to V5.3 SP3.
