Good day -- (Sorry, posted in wrong group originally) I am trying to set up and configure a test environment to install some of the old libraries. One specific issue I am encountering is setting up the configuration to run properly. Here is one specific example: - Run the connector library set up - Install the files - RUN \connlib\bin\i486_nt\mkconnconfig.exe - ENTER PATH for Library Loadpoint Directory - Filename contains spaces - ERROR: X:\XXXX - invalid directory I have tried using "" 's and double "" 's when inputting the location. Same results each time. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Regards, Aaron Spicer

    I'm not sure I fully understand your question.  What we do for libraries and templates is to declare them in the config.pro like:

     

    template_sheetmetalpart $LIB\pro_lib\Templates\Creo 2.0\mm_sheetmetal.prt.

     

    Another thing that may help you is to declare a system variable and then call it, assuming you are working on a command window:

     

    set COMMON=%PRO_ROOT%\Creo 2.0\Common Files\%DATECODE%

    copy "%COMMON%\text\config.pro"

     

    Note that the call is within "" so the entire string is considered as one text.

     

    I hope it helps.

    I think this might be the critical step I am missing. I haven't set the environment variable. That may do the trick. I appreciate the help with this.
