If it is not automatically solid then it probably has gaps or missing surfaces. You have to use either IDD or possibly adding surfaces to make it solid (plus possibly a combination of changing accuracy and other tricks). This can range from a few seconds to a few hours depending on how bad the import looks.

The very first hing you can try is select it and hit Solidify and see if that does it.

I think you may posted your question to the wrong Community. This is the Mathcad Community not the Creo one.
