I am trying to create a new template from a working form. In the form I am prompted for parameters when I create a new drawing. When I create a template from this form, I am no longer prompted for these parameter. I followed the instructions in the LMS lesson and entered &parameter_name when prompted for the parameter during the creation of the template.

I was finally able to get the template to work by opening an empty drawing, placing the drawing into template mode,  going to LAYOUT-->SHEET SETUP and clicking on format to browse for my format file. CREO should allow TEMPLATE MODE to be selected before creating a drawing.

The format I was using has drawing parameters in 2 tables. This may have cause the issue.

Timothy,

&parameter_name must be entered into table cell.

When the template is created the &parameter_name:D is entered into the cell.
