Can not open model file...

Can not open model file...

Can not open model file...

(OP)
In the middle of the session I saw the window of some error and the I-deal has crashed. When I tried to restart, the result was error-box "The shadow file previously associated to this database file cannot be accessed. Specify the correct shadow file name." What should I do, how to open the file? Both files (*.mf1 and *.mf2) on the their places. There seems to damage in these files, because when I copied those files from back-up - I was able to open the file. It is not a big disaster, just one day job is gone.
There is any possibility to restore the data?  

RE: Can not open model file...

The Last Time I had that happen to me I lost my Model file.  There is some information GTAC says about cleaning your model file.  You will need to do a search for shadow file on GTAC website.  http://support.ugs.com/.

Sorry for your lost.  It is painfull
