A) Fails to run the Find command

B) Fails to find the Datum

C) Fails in some other way - please describe

 

Also, include the contents of the Mapkey that is supposed to do this and

the Version of Creo this is supposed to do this for and

does this work on Parts and not Assemblies or it works on Assemblies and not Parts
