grids.il program stopped working when used in v17

Hi, I have been using  the program grids.il form this forum in v16.6 for several years. After I used it

in v17.2 S050 I got the error:-  *Error* axlFormSetField: argument #1 should be any user-defined (other) type (type template = "otg") - nil

To make things worse now I am getting the same error in v16.6. None of my other skill programs is showing the same error.

I have some colleagues who also have the same problem on different computers.

Any ideas ?

    Comment out when(curField == "all" and it's matching closing bracket.

    Thanks Dave. The working version is attached for anyone who likes to use it.
    The default values are best for board with units in mm but can be easily adapted for mils etc.
