Revision Table Description Disappears After Check-In
Revision Table Description Disappears After Check-In
(OP)
Here is another quirk that just appeared (or I just noticed for the first time). I searched the forum and found a post about the exact same problem that was written in 2005. Unfortunately, the recommendations from that post didn't solve the problem.
So, here's the problem... I'm revising a drawing/model. I create a revision table. I add a revision and fill in the zone, description, and approved fields. Then I go to check the file back into PDM and as soon as I hit the "Check In" button, the description field in the revision table gets cleared out. This isn't a video card thing (I've had instances before where things on the screen disappear, but when I close and reopen they are back). In this case, the text box has been completely cleared out. I have to retype the text and then when I check it back in, I have to choose one of the primary/secondary revisions (A1, A2, etc.) that you all know I love. This time it seems to take without blowing away my revision description.
Any advice?
