the path to the .dwg file is hard-coded into the equest file so if
you move the .dwg the next time you open the simulation file you'll
get a prompt that equest can't find it & would you like to
locate it.<br>
<br>
alternatively you could just edit the .pd2 file and/or .inp file
(using notepad) & change the hard-coded path to a moved .dwg
file prior to opening the simulation file again.<br>

I am studying Equest in school, we are working on a
group project. Is there a way to "bind" an Autocad
drawing to an Equest file? Or does the .dwg file need
to be loaded on whatever computer we are working on?<br>
Thank you<br>
