Part doesn't show up in tree, but file asks for it when opening
Part doesn't show up in tree, but file asks for it when opening
(OP)
SWX 2005 SP1.1
I have been having a strange problem with one of my assembly files and I am hoping I can explain it properly.
My assembly file consists of about 5 sub-assemblies. One of the sub-assemblies was made from a previous SWX 2004 job that I had. I copied & renamed the old assembly and erased everything that I didn't need (probably should have done it differently but what's done is done). I then put this sub-assembly into my new main assembly. There was a part file on the old job called xxxx.sldprt. I had erased this out of the sub-assembly before I put it in my new main assembly. Now everytime I open my new main assembly it it says 'part xxxx.sldprt will be converted when saved', like it is still in there. I opened up the sub-assembly by itself and I cannot find the xxxx.slprt in the tree and there is no reference to it within the mates. Another problem is, now other sub-assemblies within my main assembly seem to have that same xxxx.sldprt file within them because the same 'converting' note pops up when I open those seperately as well.
I tried to find the file by going to the old job and renaming the xxxx.sldprt part. When the the new assembly opened it couldn't find it, so I redirected it to a huge part I had made so it would stand out like a sore thumb. When the new assembly was finally opened, I couldn't find the huge part anywhere so that didn't work either.
I also tried opening the new assembly in SWX Explorer and see if it was listed there, no luck.
I would appreciate any enlightenment I can get.
Thanks
