Query Prompts Not Detected

I am using BarTender version 9.10 with Visual Basic.

 

Here is the code for each label:

Dim btFormat As LabelFormatDocument

btEngine.Start()

btFormat = btEngine.Documents.Open(filepath + "\SalesOrder.btw")

Dim SalesOrderPrompts As QueryPrompts = btFormat.DatabaseConnections.QueryPrompts

For Each queryprompt As QueryPrompt In SalesOrderPrompts

    SalesOrderPrompts(queryprompt.Name).Value = promptValue

Next queryprompt

btFormat.PrintSetup.PrinterName = printerName

btFormat.PrintSetup.IdenticalCopiesOfLabel = 1

btFormat.Print()

btFormat.Close(SaveOptions.DoNotSaveChanges)

 

The label is opened correctly and the database connections are read correctly. However, btFormat.DatabaseConnections.QueryPrompts always comes out empty despite that the file definitely has one working query prompt. The label then fails to print.

The label prints just fine if I print it through bartender and enter the query prompt data myself, but that is obviously not ideal for automation.

Can anyone see where this is going wrong?

 

Thanks

Kate
