sending flowitem according to excel

According the commandlist the portnr is optional so try it without first otherwise you can try with 0 or 1.
But where are you writing this code? Because if you do it on the Request Transport From the port is passed in as parameter.

Steven,

I'm writing it in sendto.
Tried all the options you said. None seems to work. I attach here a very simple model. Codes are at Source1/Flow/sentoport.

This will never work, the sendto requires a valid portnr to return. Why don't you use the port connections? Because without, the pulling will also not work.

Why is it that with the first model you want to build, you want to throw overboard all the standard (very simple to use, very robust and well designed) functionality of Flexsim and use your own? Stick to the standard unless we tell you to do otherwise!!

Anyway if you want to use moveobject and you don't want to use the port connections, return a -1 in the sendto and use the request transport from to write your moveobject. (I already mentioned to look at this trigger for an example of the code and that was not for nothing)

Steven,

Thanks for clarifying the issue!
One question, how do I reference a flowitem that has just been created? I use rank(current,ranknr) here but I have a problem when I want to do this for multiple queues at the modelTriggers/onModelOpen. Also, how do I get the flowitems to queue up nicely like it should when I use 'stack inside queue'?
I attach an example model. The codes are at Queue/Triggers/onReset.

Again, just use standard functionality. Put a source in front of a queue and select an arrival sequence and set the amount to 5 or whatever you want. Then you can use the standard queueing functionality because the items enter nicely.

I think that insertcopy actually returns a treenode being the one that is created but you should test that a bit. Otherwise "last(current)" also returns the most recently created item.

I thought that IS standard functionality. haha! Okay. Thanks a lot for the input.
