V4 to V5 dwg problem

V4 to V5 dwg problem

V4 to V5 dwg problem

(OP)
Hello all,
  First, I know very little about the Catia world, being a UG driver for many years.  Here's my problem...
I have a customer's V4 .model file open in V5.  There is no separate drawing file.  Under the "*draft" tab is a layout of 6 drawings; formats, dimensions and all.  I need to be able to export or print those drawings individually, or as one big plot.  Any sugestions would be greatly appreciated!  

RE: V4 to V5 dwg problem

In the spec tree, you should see all of the views that make up that draft (you may need to double-click to expand the tree).

Select the views you wish to migrate to V5, select COPY.
Open a new V5 Drawing.  Select the sheet and select PASTE.  You may need to move the views back onto the paper.  You can do the same with the other views, or you can copy/paste them to new sheets in the drawing you just made.

Thanks!  I'll give it a go.
