Dec 6, 2012 Thread starter #2 D dr_gallup Guest You need to add search paths in a config.pro file. For generic search paths that are needed for most Pro/E sessions I put them in the <loadpoint>\text\config.pro file. For project specific folders I add search paths to a config.pro file in the project directory where the assembly/drawing files live. You can also tell Pro/E to load a search path file but that always seemed more trouble than it's worth. search_path C:\path\to\my\parts Edited by: dr_gallup
