Start Condition related to upgrade ECC 6

[Schmidt, Jake (SN)]

Stefaan,

I would assume that you are getting this "Operator 'EQ': The value of
the left operand cannot be determined" only when the attribute is blank.
If that is the case you can look to the code for the attribute.  Make
sure that you are always running the  SWC_SET_ELEMENT CONTAINER macro.
I've had a problem before where our exception handling bypassed that
macro.  In affect the attribute isn't instantiated.  The method Sue
referenced (container operation) would also accomplish this...in fact I
did that until figuring out the problem with the macro.
Hopefully that fixes it.

Thanks
Jake Schmidt
