Objects often 'CALL' other objects or macros to save re-writing the same scripts in different objects.
There is not a lot you can do except to find this missing macro and make sure it is a part of your loaded library.
If the object was downloaded from a 3rd party you may be able to go back to that source and re-download to get all the required library parts.

If it is a GS object (I don't think it is - DMS is probably somebodies initials) then I don't know why the called macro would be missing.

Rob / Barry:

DMS re the initials of Dvid Sanders (coincidentally are also my own initials) David's library is great.

Rob:

I guess you can contact David thru this forum and most likely he will be able to tell you what you are missing there.

Rob,

The "RA_Rounded" file is marco located in the Accessories Library.
Download and install the Accessories Goodie for your AC version. The Accessories LIbrary will be added to your ARCHICAD folder.
Add the Accessories Library to your project.

Is The "Accessories" folder a folder that is already IN my ARCHICAD program or is it something I have to download and then install?

great..........states on the "goodies" and "accessories" page that the accessories and goodies ONLY will work for build 3006. We are at build 6000 with AC18.
so.....I think that is why I never installed it to begin with. Saw that statement and thought it wont work.
