Need to rotate x-y-z axis to align with model

Hi, I'm using Creo Elements / Direct Modeling Express 6.0. I need to change the x-y-z axis to align with edges on my model. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I'm not using the Express version, but I don't think this is much different. Right-click in the viewport to bring up the menu and choose "Viewport Properties..." Then, in the menu, choose "General" in the direction section. You can then move your cursor over the edge that you want to use to specify the direction. If the arrow points in the wrong direction, use the TAB key to flip the direction.
