Hi All,

I have a strange memory tag’s behavior. I set up a page with 7 Numeric Text Field, each of them is bound (Drag and Drop ) to a Memory Tag ( in order to have a retentive value ). The issue is that when I restart / shut down the pc, the values stored inside those memory tags change back to their first value ( The first value I wrote when I created them ).

Any help is much appreciated 🙂

UPDATE:  
I deleted all the TAGs involved and re-created them. This solved the problem.  
But, still, if someone knows the root cause, I’ll be happy to know it 😁
