cam express

(OP)
Tried running a cam express tutorial, but I didn't get very far. It launched the browser part of the tutorial, then when I selected "Create a new setup for this model" it opened an empty pax file "NX_VCAM_NEW_SETUP.pax" with notepad and ended there. I remember this working OK back in NX5, not sure what I'm doing wrong now.
TIA

RE: cam express

The file association for .pax files is probably wrong. It should be something like this for a native installation:
"D:\Program Files\UGS\NX 7.5\UGII\ugs_router.exe"  -ug  "%1"

Thanks for responding Mark, but I'm not sure I understand.
Are you saying the default application (notepad) is wrong (that I suspected), or that its in the wrong directory?

RE: cam express

The default application associated to opening a .pax file is wrong (notepad) and should be using what Mark posted (ugs_router).
