Do you mean the model shows the upper /lower limits as +0.001/-0.001 and the drawing is showing +0.1/-0.1?

What version of Creo are you using? The dialog changes with different versions.

Show pictures would help.

And is the drawing dimension created? Maybe you are referring to a model dimension you've set with the correct tolerance and a created drawing dimension that is showing a different tolerance?

It ended up files got deleted in Creo 3 and didn't allow tolerances to be modified, I was told by PDM Admin. ???
