Erasing Parameters from Model/Assembly files

Hi all,

I need to take an assembly out of my WindChill system and give it to our customer. To do this I need to remove the file locations and some other information that is automatically stored in the parameters of each model file. Since I cannot edit these parameters (they are locked) I can't seem to manually remove them.

In a perfect world, I would just be able to save a backup of only the geometry and give it away. A IGES or STEP file is not adequate as we want to maintain the parametric qualities of the file.

Does anyone have any input on possible means to separate the parameter info from the file/ erase the locked parameters?

Thanks,

Matt

If you add allow_create_pdm_param yes to your config.pro file, Creo will allow you to delete the Windchill parameters from the models.  You just need to switch to "<NO SERVER>" first and open the files directly from disk.
