[daip] Problem with lwpla task

Hi Eric,

I am having problems using 'lwpla' to save a plot. I have used this task 
many times in the past without problems. In the example below (at the 
end of the email), I can produce a plot using 'cntr' with dotv 1 with no 
problems, so I am sure there is a plot. Am I doing something wrong? Or 
is it really a problem with 'lwpla'?

I don't understand what the error message means,

Thanks,
Walter
