wat is use of trail.txt file?
Trail file serves as a backup file into which entered all the steps in defining objects in Creo Elements/Pro (formerly Pro|ENGINEER)
If the user makes a mistake in modeling and closes the program, does not have to click all the steps again.
Sufficient if run trail file to create previous steps.
can u explain me how to backup part if i lost my part.
If you have trail file for your lost part you can:
rename trail file: trail.txt.29 to (anyname.txt) as lost_part.txt
Start ProE > select: Tools > Play Trail/Training File... and select renamed file.
Then the system starts to load steps of the trail file.

How do you run the trail file if your files do not have a number after them? ie: trail.txt --> runme.txt
My files do not have the numerical extension. When I rename the file and try to run it I get the message: "Versioned numbers not allowed here"
Thanks,
Bob
In order to run the trail file, the file can't contain numeric index.
That much I understand - take a look at the attached screen print of the directory with my trail files - there
are no numbers after the trail.txt...
When I rename the file (with no number after the .txt) and try to run it I get the message: "Version numbers not allowed here"
Thks,
Bob
Clearly, your problem is that you do not show files extension. See that you have xls file but even there you can|t see a file extension.
In Windows, you need to set your extensions or try using a program TotalCommander.
Yup! Clearly, that was my problem! I found the button to turn on (in windows - not Pro-e) and it works fine now!
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
Best regards,

You're welcome. Have a nice day.

As suggested i renamed the trail file but after selecting the file to run the Creo crashed.

I have not had a successful run of a trail file in Creo. It normally scrashes. They are pretty much worthless for this operation.
Welcome to the forum Yogesh.
One more suggestion/caution about the use of trail files. Sometimes you use them to recover from an unexpected crash long after your last save. IF this crash was caused by your last action within Pro (as rare as that may be), then you want to delete the last little bit of the trail file before running it, or you will just crash again.
Good addition David for all those new users and seasoned veterans that might not have known that!
Best!
Bob
