Tried running a cam express tutorial, but I didn't get very far. It launched the browser part of the tutorial, then when I selected "Create a new setup for this model" it opened an empty pax file "NX_VCAM_NEW_SETUP.pax" with notepad and ended there. I remember this working OK back in NX5, not sure what I'm doing wrong now.
TIA

The file association for .pax files is probably wrong. It should be something like this for a native installation:
"D:\Program Files\UGS\NX 7.5\UGII\ugs_router.exe" -ug "%1"

Thanks for responding Mark, but I'm not sure I understand.
Are you saying the default application (notepad) is wrong (that I suspected), or that its in the wrong directory?

The default application associated to opening a .pax file is wrong (notepad) and should be using what Mark posted (ugs_router).
