Batch script: Convert STEP to PRT and vice versa

[bcmchandra]

Hey,

I am new to UG NX. I am working on a batch script which translates STEP file to PRT file. This I do it using STEP214UG.cmd. Apparently it works, but it fails to convert PRT to STEP. Any pointers???

Am using UG NX 7.0.

Try

Set UGII_BASE_DIR=C:\Program Files\UGS\NX 7.0
Set UGII_ROOT_DIR=C:\Program Files\UGS\NX 7.0\UGII\
Set Path=%path%;C:\Program Files\UGS\NX 7.0\UGII\
"C:\Program Files\UGS\NX 7.0\STEP203UG\step203ug.cmd" test.stp O= test.prt

moudy, Thanks for the reply.
STEP > PRT works alright, but PRT to STEP does not work.
Can you pls help.

After looking at GTAC soulution center it seems you need to specify the correct .def file to tell it which direction.

For importing step214, the def file is d=%UGII_BASE_DIR%\step214\step214ug.def

For exporting step214, the def file is d=%UGII_BASE_DIR%\step214\ugstep214.def

I just ran this on my system
Set UGII_BASE_DIR=C:\Program Files\UGS\NX 7.0
Set UGII_ROOT_DIR=C:\Program Files\UGS\NX 7.0\UGII\
Set Path=%path%;C:\Program Files\UGS\NX 7.0\UGII\
"C:\Program Files\UGS\NX 7.0\STEP203UG\step203ug.cmd" test.prt O=c:\temp\step214\test.stp d="C:\Program Files\UGS\NX 7.0\STEP214UG\ugstep214.def"
