Relink the drawings

Relink the drawings

Relink the drawings

(OP)
Hello,
I got the new engineering levels of the components from our customer, CATPart files built in V5R14 and I have all the detail drawings already created in V5R16 for the old levels. Also the customer files are renamed, showing the new level. I have tried to relink my drawings to the new files after I saved them as V5R16 data, but the link is not accepted. Did anybody face this issue before?  

RE: Relink the drawings

Hi,
is there any error message? Something like.. "The link refused the document"..?
If it is there is no way out...just to make the drawing again..:o(

Hi Heidy,
Unfortunately, this is the message.
Thank you

RE: Relink the drawings

The only way to fix this is thru a script that isolates and re-links the views.  And then your dimensions will be isolated. :(
