Incorrect PrgmCodes after Spec Upgrade

Incorrect PrgmCodes after Spec Upgrade - 09/10/19 11:42 AM

After I converted my .prj and .cmp files from CW 2014 to 2019 I am having incorrect PrgmCodes for plain end pipe and threaded swages. When I go to add plain end pipe it creates the entry with PrgmCode of 0125 instead of 0001. This then causes the description to disappear since the component in the catalog dbcode table is designated as Pipe (0001), and not Pipe Flange (0125).

Has anyone else experienced this behavior, and is there a way to fix it?

I've always had to manually change that in a text editor after. Once set, it should stay that way through copying or size changes, only flipping back when the data table is changed.

You open the .prj in a text editor? I tried that and it gave me a memory error.

Plain old Notepad.exe.
