Bug Fixes:

Fixed a problem that...

• could cause undetermined behavior when deleting the last element of an enumeration range used in a Database Dataset.
• in some cases caused Studio to terminate unexpectedly when using the numerical value of index variables based on dynamic ranges in variable definitions.
• caused control parameters on effects to be summarized as default even when "With maximum resolution" was selected in the Effects property page.
• in some cases caused clicking in the Precedents and Dependents lists to navigate to the Equations Window even when the target was available in a Shared Diagram Window.
• in some cases caused the Optimizer to give wrong results when optimizing models reading time-dependent data from Excel through the Spreadsheet Dataset.
• could cause Studio to terminate unexpectedly when adding a variable using a dynamic range and DISPLAYAS to a Switch control.
• prevented editing the values of series variables using INITIF in Time Graph and Time Table controls.
• prevented the Enterprise edition of Studio from loading models with more than 400 variables using dynamic ranges.
• in some cases could cause Studio to terminate unexpectedly when displaying the value of a dataset connection variable in the Value Inspector or the Value property page.
• caused the Database Dataset to not skip tuples/rows where all data fields/columns contained zero or NAN when used with data fields containg dates/times.
• caused the data of a Database Dataset with a single out-in variable to be incorrectly written to the database.
• in the Spreadsheet Dataset that caused the {RUNINDEX} field code to expand to an invalid value for run indices greater than 999.
• sometimes prevented the inconsistency indicator to be displayed on variable symbols. This happened when a shortcut was created and one or more variables having the shortcut's source variable as input existed in the same diagram.
