So, any one here ever have the problem of assembling a part and the entire program crashing when making references to two separate parts? Well, thats happening to me and its going to cause a big pain in my butt if I have to figure out a way to assemble this thing with each part referring to only one other part.

well I think I know what the problem is, but still don't know the solution, picture something like a tripod, where there is a slider on the middle bar and the leg connects to the top of the bar and to the slider. I connect the leg to the top of the bar, but when I try and connect it to the slider I am assuming they are not absolutely lined up and so the entire program crashes....I have both the leg and slider partially constrained but I guess pro/e still treats them as fully constrained and thinks the parts are impossible at which point it crashes

any ideas??
