Most of Visio’s error messages are somewhat explanatory, though we continue to improve their wording. However, there is another set an error 128 occurred during the action save visio of messages that report “internal errors”. an error 128 occurred during the action save visio 2010 Internal errors are usually problems where the Visio program has done something wrong, whereas other errors are shown in response to things visio 2010 shapesheet the user has done. Internal errors can be identified by an error number included within the message text. Often the message provides no clue as to the problem or possible remedies. We’ll look at one of the more visio shapesheet formulas frequently encountered internal error messages in this post – Error #318. Error #318 can occur when you copy and paste a shape from one document to another. There are some specific circumstances needed to trigger the error:
The shape is an instance of a master The shape has a reference to a cell in the Document Shapesheet The cell in the Document Shapesheet has a reference to another cell in the Document Shapesheet The Document Shapesheet cells are not present in the target document This is not the only way to encounter this error, but it is representative of what can happen. Here are the steps to reproduce the problem: Create a new blank Visio drawing Open the Drawing Explorer from the View menu Open the Document Shapesheet by right-clicking on the top item in the explorer Create two rows in the User-defined section named Test1 and Test2 For the value of User.Test1, enter =User.Test2 Close the Document Shapesheet window Right-click on the Masters item in the Drawing Explorer and choose New Master Enter the name Test for the master and click OK Edit the Test master and draw a rectangle Open the Shapesheet for the rectangle and create a row in the User-defined section name Test For the value of User.Test enter =TheDoc!User.Test1 Close the Shapesheet and master edit windows and accept changes Go File > Shapes > Show Document Stencil Drag and drop the Test master onto the page Copy and Paste the shape into a new blank document The problem for Visio is the secondary reference in the Document Shapesheet to another cell.

The following issue occurs: "An error (318) occured during the action Copy. Referenced cell Actions.Disabled[924] does not exist" Found a reference, but it was in German.... can't read German... Help.... Stripped down the drawing to the bare minimum, without macros and still same result. I'm thinking it is a default setting in the page not the drawing items themselves. The Shapesheet setting perhaps? Any help would be greatly appreciated... Can't figure it out.... Kate, Jun 23, 2006 #1 Advertisements Mark Nelson [MS] Guest Hi Kate, It's difficult to know for sure what https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/visio/2006/07/14/error-318-explained/ is going on, but there is a typical scenario for this error value. Basically there is a shape with a reference to a cell in another shape which in turn references another cell. Normally this is fine, but there are some specific circumstances when this does not work. This seems to occur most often when the shape references information in the PageSheet (the Shapesheet for the page).

Look for any cells in a User-Defined, Custom Properties or Actions section. You can manually insert similar cells on the destination page. This may allow the copy / paste operation to succeed. -- Mark Nelson Office Graphics - Visio Microsoft Corporation This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

This is not a normal occurrence but it can happen. Your shape has a dependency on another shape that does not exist in the document you are pasting to. If you can find this shape and paste it at the same time, things may be OK. Alternatively, you can edit your shape to remove the dependency. This is done by selecting it and choosing Window Show Shapesheet. Then look through the formulas and find the reference below to delete it. -- Mark Nelson Office Graphics - Visio Microsoft Corporation This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
