PHA: /* With miTools */ - typo correction

==Introduction==
When running TUFLOW, version control and naming conventions are important. These help with quality control and also when you are looking back at an old model or taking over from someone else's model. It is recommended For any modified files the version. See this description on the recommended [[Naming_Convention | TUFLOW Naming Convention]].
To save a GIS layer with the same version number as the TUFLOW simulation
==With miTools==
There is a miTools utility to assist with this process as it is a regular part of TUFLOW modelling. To do this, select an object from the table that you wish to increment and select the ''Increment Selected Layer'' button from the miTools toolbar (shown below.) This utility performs the following steps: 
* Prompts for the name of the new table (if the last digits of the table are a number, e.g. 001, it will default to 002);
* Save a copy of the table with this name;
* Close the existing version;
* Open the new table;
* Add the table to the current Map Window ''Layer Control'' as the top layer; and
* Make this layer editable.

==Without miTools==
Use the ''File >> Save Copy As...'' dialogue and select the table that you wish to increment. When prompted enter the desired file name and select ''Save''. For example '''2d_code_WG_001''' would be saved as '''2d_code_WG_004''' if it was updated for input into model run 004. 
It is recommended that you close the previous version of the file to avoid accidentally modifying the previous version. This can be done with the ''File >> Close Table'' interface. 
The new file is not automatically Opened in MapInfo, this can be done using the ''File >> Open'' process, or using ''File >> Recent Files'', the newly saved table should be at the top of the list. 
 Add this table to the ''Layer Control'' of the desired Map Window and make the table ''Editable''.

PHA: Typo fix

{{TUFLOW_Message
|tuflow_message=ERROR 2313 - Event Source Text ",a," used more than once.
|alt_msg=NA
|type=[[ERROR]]
|message_desc=The .tcf command <tt>BC Event Source == <bc_event_text> <nowiki>|</nowiki> <bc_event_name></tt> is used to define BC Event Text wildcard and the BC Event Name, which is to replace it in input files. For example: 
<tt>BC Event Source == ~ARI~ <nowiki>|</nowiki> 020y</tt> 
Will set the event text of variable of ~ARI~, this wildcard can be used in input files, for example in the "source" column of the BC database (bc_dbase). This wildcard text will be replaced by the event name <bc_event_name>. In the example command above <tt>Inflows_~ARI~_Hydrology.csv</tt> would become <tt>Inflows_020y_Hydrology.csv</tt> 

For more details, including examples, see Section 4.12 of 2010 TUFLOW manual. Each occurence of <bc_event_text> must be unique for simulation.

This message is occuring as each <tt>BC Event Source == <bc_event_text> <nowiki>|</nowiki> <bc_event_name></tt> is not setting a unique <bc_event_text>. Two commands can not set set the same text wildcard (e.g. ~ARI~).
|suggestions= For each <tt>BC Event Source == <bc_event_text> <nowiki>|</nowiki> <bc_event_name></tt> command ensure that the <bc_event_text> is unique.
