I have tried this in the past and got no replies. I figured I would try once more in case someone who can help will see it this time.

We have a lot of specific notes (in some cases symbols) we add depending on what kind of part we are detailing. So we created part files with just a particular note or symbol on it and when we need it, we can select the button for that note/symbol and it will automatically import the correct part file and fall in the correct place on the drawing. However, because there is an extra step to import a part file into a Team Center File, I have to have separate buttons for Team Center and Native NX9.

I was wondering if there is a journal that would import a part file and work correctly for both Team Center and Native?

If not, is the a Journal code that I could manipulate that would add a specific note/symbol to a specific location on the drawing sheet?

Thanks in advance for any help offered.

You can detect whether TC is running and proceed accordingly.

Code:
Dim IsTcEng As Boolean = False
theUfSession.UF.IsUgmanagerActive(IsTcEng)

If IsTcEng Then
'code for running under TC

Else
'code for running in native mode

End If
