hi guys.

 

i am having a lot of trouble trying to place a sheet format in a draw, i hope you guys can help me.

 

i open my draw, go to sheet setup, and set a sheet format, and save the draw. But when i try to open the same draw over again, the sheet formar is gone. in another word the sheet format no longer is saved.

 

appears the error, the PA1 does not exist in database.

 

i use the CReo 3.0, and windchill to manage de files..

I have a similar issue that I can locate the format that I want to use when browsing. However, when I open it to load it as the format it doesn't come in and instead I get an error message that says does not exist in the database. 

 

I am using windchill with creo 4.0 I should add. 

 

Thanks,

Does it work if you manually add the format to your workspace first?  What about if you load the format into session first?

It will not allow either of these actions. Each time I try adding to workspace it gives me 

 

Add to workspace failed: bom_b.frm. See the Event Management console for details.
No drawings were found in the directory wtpub://Windchill/Libraries/Library/Library/Configuration Files/Start Parts/
'wtpub://Windchill/Libraries/Library/Library/Configuration Files/Drawings/Formats/W-M/bom_b.frm|v=A.5' cannot be retrieved.
'bom_b' does not exist in the database.

 

My co-worker said to move needed files to a new workspace and delete this one. I would really like to know how to fix this though.
