Button: Hydraulic Demand Error Type: Bad Argument

Description:

When trying to insert a Hydraulic demand block (Compact/Standard/Expanded) (IHD command) and after selecting the .WXF file to use;

You get the error message;

Error: bad argument type: numberp: DATAFILE

And the command kicks you out.

Cause:

Through a stroke of bad luck, the info sheet had a word which is sensitive to how the program reads the values to be inserted.

Solution:

In this case, the word DIA were the first 3 letters of the job name, and it was enough to crash the process
