I get a "No Geometry" message when importing an Orcad IDFfile into CircuitWorks (see attachment).
I have sent the problem to my VAR (NTCADCAM) and received thefollowing:
The thing is CW is already set to link by Name Only, so I donot understand the answer. I did not notice this problem withearlier service packs, I am running 2009 SP2.0, so suspect there isa problem with the software.
I need to build CircuitWorks assemblies NOW! not when SP3 surfaces.
Can anyone offer any help?SolidworksCircuitworks

I have sent the problem to my VAR (NTCADCAM) and received thefollowing:
At the moment the problem with this file set is that eachinstance of the missing components does not have a correspondingentry in the library file (.emp) for each part number. For examplethe "SM/CAPC1608M" component has multilple entries in the .emn filewith different part numbers 100nF, 10nF, 47pF etc. In order forCircuitWorks to find the geometry the part numbers must also matchor there must be a seperate entry in the .emp file for eachdifferent part number. This has been changed in SolidWorks 2009SP3.0 so once this service pack is available the customer will beable to set their CircuitWorks options to link the .emp and .emnfiles by component name only instead of by both component name andpart number
