I am using windows 7 on my macbook pro. I am using autoCAD 2010. I can create and save files, however I can't open them. When trying to open a file, a message pops up saying "Cannot find the specified drawing file. Please verify that the network drive is available and the file exists."

I am having to put some vendor drawings into company borders and I am having to do it by eye currently (which I really do not like doing).

I can export them from another file, then use the import function to bring it over, but there has to be a way to force this file to find the entire "default" color file.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm linking an excel file to an .ipt file with iLogic code determining if the Material type is a certian value it will find the correct material thickness. These file work great when working on them thru Vault but when I "Save As Template" and create this file where our other template files are located (not Vault) this fuction does not work. I have realized that I had to place the a copy of the excel file in the same file folder as the template ipt, but even this does not fix the issue.
I recieve this error:
Error in rule: Material, in document: Part6
'MWW Materials (Inventor).xlsx' could not be found. Check the spelling of the file name, and verify that the file location is correct.
If you are trying to open the file from your list of most recently used files, make sure that the file has not been renamed, moved, or deleted.
It seems completly countintutive that just saving the file as a template file would cause this not to work when all files that are required are located in the same file folder. Maybe I need a reference to the excel document within the iLogic code.
I'm trying to write a VBA macro (for Inventor 2010) that would have to work on drawing .idw files that are generated from a given component.So when I have an open assembly document, I want to go through all component occurences and work with the associated drawing.
There's a built in command in Inventor for that, in the context menu, something like "Open drawing" (mine is german, so not sure how it's called in english), which does this. It opens the drawing of the given part. From this I assumed, there must be a reference within each part, that points to the referencing drawing.
But I'm not able to find this information anywhere within the properties/objects of any component.how or where can I get this information out of the components?
how to identify the model associated with a particular PL on a drawing. I'm able to find a PL and write to the header which is cool. But I'm trying to determine the model associated with the BOM pipline so I can get it's P/N iproperty and write that to the PL header.

This may be linked to another problem I need an answer to.
I had 2011 C3D installed, uninstalled it, then installed 2012 C3D. Stand alone license.
Now the icons for all dwg files, the one that should show that ACAD is the application that opens it, does not show in windows explorer. See the attachment.
I have done the "file open with ... Always use the selected..." thing with no result. I have also used the repair function on the install disk with no result.

I have deleted everything out of the drawing, done "select all" numerous times and deleted, but this layer still won't let itself be deleted. I have made sure it is not the current layer, w blocked the whole drawing etc. There was an ole image in this drawing at some stage, could that have left this horrible layer "25L"???
I hate when i have rogue layers in my files

I have the student version of 2012. Does this have something to do with it?

I have administrative rights to the profile in question and I have also attempted to use a separate profile but received the same results. All attempts to manually set the file association have liekwise failed. the program will initialize, but the error message returns with no ability to veiw the drawing file(s).
I have also removed/uninstalled all of the above mentioned programs via Autodesk instructions/procedures for proper removal of folders/subfolders/registry entries (HKey local machine and current user) as well as stoping any autodesk program running in task manager.
My next step is to re-image the machine to make the file association stick to an autocad program.
