Disappearing parameter from drawing note

I created a parameter in my Pro/E model (Wildfire 4.0) in the Tools/Relations area called "PORT_RIDGES." PORT_RIDGES=P427:0-1 (Which means using "&PORT_RIDGES" in a drawing note returns the value 13)


When I first use &PORT_RIDGES in a dimension text on a drawing it works fine and the value "13" is shown in the note, but then when I save the drawing and regenerate it the "13" in the note on the drawing, as well the value "&PORT_RIDGES" in the dimension note editor window, are replaced with "***"


Any ideas what could be the causeof this? Thanks!
