I have read and the help section on this and have had limited success
getting this to work post test in local mode (Version 6.1). When I
drag a parameter into the event marker log I usually do not get the
parameter to show up the the property bag once I run off an event
marker. However it did work 3 of my 20 or so attempts and of course I
am not sure what was different about those 3 times. Any suggestions?
Any tutuorials out there on the format of the property bag column for
the event marker and other logs/configuration tabs?

Just to make sure I understand, you're trying to append a parameter's
value in the Event Marker log. The help topic is listed under
"Recording the Data Values of Pre-selected Parameters". Is this the
same one you're referencing?
It seems odd that it would work for 3 attempts. Can you open up your
Configuration Tool and look in the Users table (under the Groups
section), find your User name and scroll over to look at the
PropertyBag column. You should see an entry right at the start of
that column that says "EMLogAug=YourParameterName". If you don't see
an entry, let me know. If you see your parameter name listed there,
we'll need to dig a little deeper. Are you dropping a single
parameter on the EventMarker table or multiple parameters? It should
handle either.
This is what an entry should look like in your EventMarker table after
you've dropped a parameter(s) on it and then create an EventMarker:
Group SubGroup User Time
Comment PropertyBag
a b User5 001:00:10:21.901 E5 "Parameter1=-7.43416e-012,
Parameter2=1.48683e-011"

Brenda, that is the help topic I was using.
Under my username in the Groups Tab it does have a number of
parameters (and shows my impatience with multiple entries for the same
parameter). After dropping a new event marker the property bag column
still comes out empty. Since I had multiple parameters under my user
ID I cleaned out all but one, saved, and tried again (no joy).
Are you hitting the EventMaker button on the Analysis Window or are
you using an Action object to generate the EventMarkers?
Unfortunately, appending the parameter information in the PropertyBag
column of the EventMarker log only works if the EventMarker is
generated from the AnalysisWindow button.

Hmm, so much for that theory.
Can you drop that parameter on a Stripchart and verify that there is
data for it.
Also, instead of running in local mode, if you have a
PostTestDataServer, can you try running that, then connect with your
PostTest Client. I'd like to see if that makes any difference.

Is the parameter derived, and if so, does it contain a "GetValue" function anywhere in it's hierarchy? The reason I'm asking is that the GetValue function attempts to access elements on the display, so it might fail when attempting to do this via the EventMarker system.
Also, can you send us your property bag setting text? I'm wondering if somehow the setting got corrupted.
Sorry for the fumbling on this issue. We've never had a problem in this area before so we're short on ideas, Jim

I have been using non-derived parameters.

As Brenda mentioned, we might have to look at your config file. There may be something incorrect in the file causing this issue.
According to the code, if there's an error in the parameter, it should append "????" to the log entry. In other words, if you have parameters attached to the EventMarker table, you shouldn't be seeing a blank PropertyBag column... it's either some value or "?????".
So, it seems there might be a couple of possibilities:
1) There are actually might be duplicate users by your same name in the config file. This may be causing an issue while loading the augmentation setup.
2) There might be a query filter set on the EventMarker table that's preventing you from seeing these entries.
If we have your config file, we should be able to run simulated data and debug the issue, Jim
