Property data "anchor not found"

I want to schedule window assemblies, with doors as infills.
In the property data i have insert some anchor property definitions of my doors.
In the schedule table I got the message "anchor not found".
How can I schedule doors and window assemblies in one table?
Attached is the drawing (ACA 2011)

Ouch - I don't read German??
Generally and anchor property would connect a door to a space.
As there are no spaces there can be no anchor.
David Koch has written about schedules on his web site alot so it's worth a
visit.
He also has reference to a brain drain doc on schedules too.
(David have you added a search tool for your site yet?
You have heaps of good stuff there that it'd be great to be able to search
for).

Actually studying further I think I am just showing my ignorance. Are you
trying to anchor the door to the DWA?

I hope that it is possible to retrieve the data (width and height) of an infill of a window-assembly, but I think that not the case (by now).

Looks more like Dutch to me.
fredklopper, it looks like you're trying to schedule the door-window assembly, and have the door-window assembly report information about its infill using an anchor property. I think anchor properties work in the reverse: schedule the door, and have the door report information about the door-window assembly to which it is anchored via an anchor property.
In other words, put the anchor property in the door property set "O80_30_Deuren" and have it retrieve information from the DWA property set "ANL_31_Kozijn", then schedule the door.
You may eventually run into trouble with this method however, since some doors will be anchored to DWA's and other doors will be anchored to walls. It may not be possible to schedule them all together.

Richard,

Thats just what I needed, i only use doors within window assemblies. So this will do the trick.

Thanks.
