UDF Error?

Hello and thanks for any ideas/info regarding this problem:


After re-creating 2 UDFs a couple days ago, I tested them and they worked fine.


Yesterday I was doing final verification prior to release and they don't work anymore?


When I try to insert a UDF I get an error message"


"Retrieving group information...
Can not find group."


Of course I have the gph file in the working directory as well as the prt and drw files.

The config option pro_group_dir controls where Pro/E looks for udf features. If the udf is not stored in the group directory, you can brouse to the correct directory.

Yes, that is true however not relavent to this problem. Everything is in my working directory as stated in the initial post.


Yes, I have to select the current working directory when initiating UDF insertion. Then I select my gph file and I get the error message- "can not find group"


Looking forward tomore comments /answer please

Please check if the feature added to the UDF does exist in the source model. Pro/E displays such warning if the source model or source feature does not exist, while placing sub-ordinate UDF. Try redefining the UDF
