     Without seeing your results database, it's very hard to know what is wrong. Can you uploading a simulation result database containing just the a and z signals used in the expression to the forum (use the Options tab)? You could use the results browser in ViVA to select the two signals, and then export to a PSF database.

    If you can't do that, contact customer support.

    Kind Regards,

    Andrew.
