Problem:

The following is displayed when trying to open a model in AutoPIPE:

---------------------------
Error
---------------------------
E512-149: Model name must not contain space character before extension.
Please rename the model and related files.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

How to resolve the issue?

Solution:

Press the OK button on the Error dialog screen above. 

Open the folder location where your AutoPIPE Model is stored

Search for the AutoPIPE model *.DAT files (you may need to turn on file extensions for this folder).

The problem is that there is a SPACE character (shown in red below) before the .DAT file extension.

Example:

Wrong =  302242E-03(C) piping .dat

Avoidance : Modify the file name to remove the SPACE 

Example: 

Corrected = 302242E-03(C) piping.dat

 Open the new file name and the error message should no longer appear.
