NX Part File Version checker
NX Part File Version checker
(OP)
Morning all,
Is there a way to check which version a part file is without opening it? I've recently updated to NX 9 from 7.5 and had to reinstall my OS due to disk errors etc. So I didn't reinstall 7.5 because we are now using 9. Trouble is I've been asked to check the files are saved in 7.5 and not 9. I'm fairly sure they are but need to check.
I found I think on this forum a similar thing to check catia parts, it's like a small .exe which checks them and tells you what version they are in.
Any help would be great
Cheers

I have opened an NX file in Notepad but have not been unable to find anything that states the version.

I tried to run the .bat file but it is not working. When I right click the part file, the two options didn't come out.
Is there anything I need to edit in the .bat file? Thank you.
