This sounds as if the VC project is not setup correctly. Did you use the import wizard to convert the original NX project to VC or did you create the VC project from scratch? Also, if this is a NX...

Thanks imported code into new project, but I have now blown the 2200 project line limit. Can you use VC without using a project?
View ArticleForum Post: RE: COBCH1505 I-O error _ IDY file
