Import sketch to new part (Creo 3)

Hi there,

When I save a sketch as a .sec file and go to my new part, enter sketch mode - there's nowhere to import the sketch?? The tutorial for CREO 2 says there's a 'File System' dialogue but this doesn't seem to be present in Creo 3, help please!!

    The tab is missing the Get data option.

    In the sketch on the ribbon, right click and select CUSTOMIZE THE RIBBON.

    Add the option for Get Data. Not sure why it was not there in the first place but I've notice that the educational version "simplifies" the menus sometimes.

    It's when you have started the sketch.

      There's no 'File System' option for me. I'm running PTC Creo Parametric

        It should be available in sketch, if not, try to search for it on search tab.
