Can't get the sketch to show in my model

Can't get the sketch to show in my model

(OP)
I've been using SW for a long time, this is the first time I run into this. Using the right mouse click on my sketches in one specific model, and pressing "show sketch", I get nothing. I opened other files and had no problems performing the same operation. I am using SW 2005, anybody run into this before? Thanks.

RE: Can't get the sketch to show in my model

Check your Options for the file (and maybe even system) to make sure Show Sketches is shown.  Also, there may be some setting under the Annotations tab in the Feature Tree to check.

I think Jeff means "View->Sketches". Also make sure you are not in large assembly mode.

Jeff & Stefan, thanks a million .. I had the view sketch checked but somehow after un-checking it and turning it on again, it worked. This was driving me crazy .. Thanks again.
