    The exact error message would be helpful (and the expression, if it’s an expression error).

    Error as follows:

    After Effects warning:Expected:’
    Expression disabled.

    Error occurred at line 1.
    Comp:’Comp 1′
    Layer: 4 (‘Red Solid’)
    Property: ‘Center’

    It generates this error for every property which is able to have an expression applied.

    The expression generated is as follows for that particular property:
    thisComp.layer(“Red Solid”)undefined(“Effects”)(“Circle”)(“ADBE Circle-0001”)

    If you take out the undefined, it works fine. I don’t know what is creating the undefined in the middle of the expression.

    Thanks for the look.

    I have narrowed the problem down to the “else if” statement at the end of the LinkAll function.

    It looks like your main routine calls LinkAll() with only one parameter. If you don’t already, learn to set breakpoints, examine the call stack and the data browser.
