**Error** unable to open database file

Hello,

I have a problem accessing the saved results data from a locked simulation I had run on ADE Assembler (Virtuoso 6.1.7 version) a few weeks ago. When I try to load the results from "Data View" ("View Results"), I get this message:

Despite the fact that the full table with the results is correctly loaded, when I attempt to plot some result, the plot area in the Visualization Window remains empty. I have tried using the Results Browser to retrieve the plots I want, however even that does not work consistently - sometimes I am able to do so, some other times the Results Browser is completely empty of data. I have tried deleting all the .cdslck files that are created, but that doesn't help much.

This stands for quite a few testbenches. One thing in common in all of them is that I had renamed the Interactive Runs once the simulation was done - I am not sure whether it plays a role.

I don't think it has been answered somewhere else already, but I would appreciate any kind of input, as the data I want to plot are quite massive and re-running everything would take quite some time.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Kind regards,

Dimitris
