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

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.
