Bookmarks not holding Input Value

Good morning everyone,

Having a problem setting bookmarks.  I have a "What If" model which allows users to enter different percentages on multiple lines.  After they have entered all of their percentages they want to save it as a bookmark.  Well there are lines A - L.  Here is what gets entered by the user, then they save the bookmark and then open the model and access the bookmark and they get the Return values.  Any ideas?

A 36%      Returns 36%
B 3%        Returns 4%     (wrong)
C 33%      Returns 33%
D 5%        Returns 5%
E 30%      Returns 30%
F 20%      Returns 0%     (wrong)
G 15%      Returns 15%
H 0%        Returns 0%
I 0%         Returns 0%
J 7%        Returns 7%
K 7%       Returns 7%
L 9%        Returns 9%

From the above thread:

"The values entered in the input box are usually assigned to variables and qlikview saves only the information about server objects, and not the data itself, in the .shared files .

If you'd want to save the data for future use; you'd have to write a macro to save the input data to some file and read from it while relaoding the document. so that all the inputs values are available for use in the UI"

If you could upload your qvw that would be helpful.

Even if you can't post your actual qvw due to the sensitive info, if you could post a sample qvw with the error that would be helpful

For some reason my variable were not showing up on the list of variables to set as bookmark.  I deleted them and re-added, deleted everything from Accesspoints, reloaded and it appears to be working.  Thanks everyone for your help.
