Pack and Go not working

Unread post by Arthur NY »

Am wondering if anyone has ever done a pack and go on an Assembly, copied to a new folder, both regular and/or zipped, and opened the file on another computer and some Part files are looking for the network location rather than the folder it was copied to?

TIA
Arthur

When this happens to me the most common cause is a file path containing to many characters. There is limit to the number of characters in the file path with Pack & Go and if that is exceeded that item won't be included in the copied file. We found that we needed to keep a simplified folder structure with few sub-folders and try to keep the file name as short as possible.
