IS there anyway to delete/remove a CAD by REFERENCE importation or are you screwed forever and ever by either keeping a CAD file around that you no longer use (with data or without, you still need to keep the file) or always getting the "CAD MODEL REF. FILE does not exist, wah, wah, wah, yada, yada, yada".

I deleted a CAD file accidentally in explorer and the program ran just fine without. Have you tried that?Xcel & MicroVal Pfx & Global 37mr4 thru 2012mr1sp3

I am not saying that it won;t run, I don't want that [email protected] message to pop up everytime I open the program and I don't want the 'extra' cad file anymore. Typical of Pcdmis, you can't remove something you don't want anymore.sigpic

Is it possible to turn off that message in the setup area? Some you can and some you can't, but I'd give it a look and see if you can kill it there.

just delete (in Explorer) the .CAD-file of your partprogram (while that pp is not opened/used in the Demon), not the CAD-file of your reference.

Now I understand your prob and I'm able to reproduce it:
you had already imported a step file and merged that CAD with a CAD reference
file; after deletion of the referenced CAD-file you're not able to turn off that
error-msgbox, but after cancelling out the error, the old/prepared Step-Import
comes in fine.
In 3.7MR3 there's no way to bypass the error.
But in 4.2 you can (after also cancelling the error) go into CAD Assembly
and delete then the link to the missing CAD-reference (see attachment).
after all do a backsave to V3.7 and the error should be history!
